Great Park Pumpkin Harvest

This morning we went to the Great Park, yet again, for another family outing. Admission was free, parking was $10. The event started at 10 a.m., but we arrived about 15 minutes early. That turned out to be a good thing, because we avoided a lot of the crowds that we saw only an hour later. We also came prepared with our wagon--perfect for toting our pumpkins around (each child under 12 was able to pick one for free).

The Great Balloon turns into a jack o'lantern for Halloween.

Going to the event was good motivation for me to make sure the costumes were done early. Tinkerbell & Peter Pan:

There were a lot of activities for the little ones. There was a candy trick or treating area, and a game area with little toy/sticker prizes.

About half the people who commented on n's outfit thought he was Robin Hood. Can anyone tell me what the difference between Robin Hood and Peter Pan would be? I guess he just needs to stick closer to k, so the association can be made. However, k wasn't wearing her wings most of the time, so people were probably confused about her outfit too.

Green tights instead of brown pants.

Ah yes, green tights. That was a no-go with D (not to mention, hard to find).
