annual harvest party


Last night was our church's annual Harvest Party. The boys were so excited; it's always a ton of fun. This year was no exception!

The kids (and many adults too) always dress up in costumes. This year Ben was Buzz Lightyear, Owen was Tigger, and Kyle...was going to be Thomas the Tank Engine. But at the 11th hour he decided that he envied Benjamin's costume so much, he didn't even want to dress up. So the Thomas costume stayed woefully behind, though we did manage to convince Kyle to wear the Thomas hat that came with it...

Anyway, at the Harvest Party there are tons of fun activities: ring toss, balloon darts, a dunk tank, whack-a-mole, shooting range, archery, face painting, balloon animals, fishing for prizes, a labyrinth-like puzzle the size of a table, a hayrack ride, cake walk, and more. It was so much fun, and we had a beautiful day for it. Ben & Kyle are already talking about next year!

Oh man that looks like so much fun! I wish we had something like that to take Evelyn to. I have issues with Halloween but do like the cute costume aspect of it. Evelyn is going to her play group this week in costume and I might dress her in costume when we go to the zoo.... she wants to be a penguin. The boys look like they had a great time-Ben is losing his baby face, what a big boy :)

Brigetta,

You should come with us next year! I'll try to remember to give you the details when I know them. It's so much fun: safe & completely geared toward the kids having a great time.
