Happy Halloween, Ya'll

Last weekend, the whole family got into the pumpkin carving spirit.  For the first time ever, Carli actually put her hand into the pumpkin and pulled out the guts.

This year for Halloween, Carli wanted to be a cowgirl.  Easy enough...

Off to the Fair!

Carli's first field trip as a kindergartner was to the fair.  Mommy took the day off and was a chaperon on the trip.

Sparky the Fire Dog

The pig races were a huge hit!

She loves her teacher!

Mommy and Me

We went inside and watched a sheep dog herd sheep and ducks.  It was pretty cool to watch!

Checking out what the blacksmith made

We saw a lady with a goat.  She let us pet it and walk it around the pen.

In the petting zoo, we saw many animals, including Carli's favorite, the zebra.  We could only look at her and not touch.  (They bite!)  Mommy fed a yak and came back with a hand full of slobber.  Carli talked to many animals, but would not touch or feed any of them.

After the field trip part was over, we stayed with a few of Carli's friends and rode some rides.
