Halloween 2009

Owen wasn't too fond of getting dressed up this year for Halloween, but Grandma did manage to convince him to let her put his monkey costume on by explaining to him that it meant they were going to go outside.

Riding the Pumpkin Train

We went to a pumpkin patch in nearby Marshall, WI where we got to take a train ride out to the pumpkin patch to pick out our pumpkins. It was the first time I ever got to ride on a train and I wasn't scared at all! Momma and Daddy's friends from college came down from MN with their son Emil to go with us.
