Hello Fellow dis-ers,
I'm just starting this thread because I think this is SUCH a fantastic time of year. I know we all like to do fun things and I hope this will be a thread that people will post on as if it were there own. I'd love to see all of your fantastic ideas and adorable kids/family/whatever!
Whatever you want to share you can do so here. Your lawn decorations, your costumes, your upcoming Christmas prettiness.. whatever! I'm going to begin with some photo's of one of our local pumpkin patches and our recent Halloween Party!
Please enjoy and contribute anything you like!
First some pictures from one of the many SPECTACULAR pumpkin patches up here in the Portland area. I'm a native Californian and we just did NOT have fall so I am forever entranced by this lovely season.
This pumpkin patch is called Lakeview Farms and is really low-key and incredibley beautiful. For those of you reality TV fans this is about 5 minutes from the Little People Big World Rolloff Family Farms.. I'm not a fan of their pumpkin patch because it is too crowded and nowhere NEAR as pretty as the one I'm about to show you .....
Face paint = $1 tip
Train to pumpkin patch
Shot of the cars on the train from last year
Return from Pumpkin picking by boat
When I first moved to Portland I found this pumpkin patch. It has the most spectacular views of tall pines and rolling farmlands. In the lake there are little pop-up dragons and sharks that spray water. This is a pic I have to get of DDC every year. She's quite the ham.

Coming up next is our Halloween Party... I hope you guys had fun!
