Denver Zoo -- free day!

Well, it sure was a cold day, but we ventured up to Denver anyway to enjoy their monthly "free day" at the Denver Zoo.

21 months on the 21st!

It only happens once!
... then, let's see, 21 YEARS on the 21st. Well, that won't be until 2029!!

Going to Sunflower Market in the crazy snowy cold weather -- on my birthday

mmm, the produce guy gave me a banana & didn't even know it was my 21-month birthday!

snowfall for the day!

Pumpkin Patches Galore!

I'm pretty sure that this is going to be the record year of all years for the number of pumpkin patches we've visited. Kate really enjoys them, and we've been going every weekend! First, we went to one out at Rock Ledge Ranch (next to Garden of the Gods) with Tiana. They were having a Harvest Festival. Then, we went to TWO pumpkin patches outside of Boulder with Lynda. Then we finally went to one with Daddy -- located up in Elizabeth, CO (about 45 minutes NE of here).

GIANT PUMPKIN WEIGHING CONTEST WITH TIANA

It was a gorgeous day to go do FALL things :) Carolyn, Kate, and Carolyn's lil sis, Tiana, all went down to Rock Ledge Ranch to their Harvest Festival (pics above "pumpkin patches galore". We also went to Old Colorado City to see the Giant Pumpkin Weighing Contest -- whoa, some pumpkins were more than 1,000 lbs!!
