We are busy as usual around here. We ventured to the big city last week and took Grammy with us! We saw "The Green Sheep" at the Seattle Children's Theater. We had checked out the book at the library (Amelia memorized it!) so we were very familiar with it by the time we saw the play. Simone was mesmerized; I think she enjoyed it even more than Amelia. 

Then, we went to the the ever famous "Pumpkin Walk" at Bainbridge Gardens. We met our friends Carolyn, Torey, Madison (aka. Snow White) and Reed (aka Jester) there and the girls had a fab time. There were over 300 pumpkins this year! You walk on a trail through the woods while oohing and ahhing over the lit orbs including various silly and scary faces like Shrek and Sarah Palin (respectively), and even Cinderella's carriage. The girls were in awe. There was also a bouncy house, fishing game, treats and other festivities. 

Of course, we had to get to the pumpkin patch before all the pumpkins were gone! Keith was in the city, so I made Isabel come. Good thing! The girls picked out rather large pumpkins and I needed all that muscle power!

Thank you for including me in the search for the Green Sheep. It was nice to spend the day with all my girls. The Pumpkin Walk looks like it was alot of fun and I especially like the orange and red pumpkin that's now sitting on your porch. I love you ALL!!!
