Fall Fun

At the Davis Pumpkin Patch in 2012.  Lot's of fun activities, our second year going.

This corn bath is one of Nate's favorites.  He can play for hours  All these corn kernels on a tarp, surrounded by hay, about 2 feet deep.

Great photo of Nate enjoying the fall weather.

In the corn bath, I guess it's the way the folks in the midwest pretend they're at the beach.

Nate working on his hand stands.  Gives you a better sense of how big the corn bath is.

Love the way Nate looks with the fall colors in the background.

Buried in corn.  

They also had this hay maze and climbing structure.  Provided a fun chase area.  This time I caught him.

Nate loves to be spun around.

Like Maria's shadow of her holding the camera at the bottom.

Nate and I relaxing and enjoying the day.

We also hosted a pumpkin carving party.  Friends and neighbors came by, brought a Halloween themed wine and we all carved our pumpkins on the back patio.

Brad really gets crazy with the designs.  I guess you can do that if you know how to draw.

Kids and adults all taking turns carving, cleaning and decorating the pumpkins.

A few of the finished products.

Maria's big holiday craft project.  She learned what modge podge is and how to use it.  Luckily we have our neighbor Brad to help with the writing and really finish off this project.

Angel Island

Pack 1592 spent a beautiful day in San Francisco Bay.  We took a ferry over to Angel Island and hiked to the top.

On the ferry ride over we got some good views of the Golden Gate Bridge.

We carpooled down with Mike and Casey.

It was great day with lots of amazing views.

As you hiked up and around the island you could see all the different views.

Alcatraz, another more famous island in the bay.

At the top, we enjoyed a little break and a great view of all of SF and the Golden Gate

Making our way back down.  These trails weren't as pretty as the ones heading up, but they did offer better views of the city.

Checking out the new panoramic features of the Iphone.
