Pumpkin Patch

We took Taylor to the Rocky Mountain Pumpkin Ranch in the middle of October. It was such a beautiful day and we really enjoyed walking through all the pumpkins and going through the corn mazes. Taylor loved riding in the wagon and pushing it all over the place. She wasn't too sure about the animals in the petting zoo though. Since we went on a weekday, the rides and consessions weren't open so we decided to go for round 2 the following weekend. Taylor got to experience her first funnel cake (Yumm!) and ride on the airplanes, cars and the carousel. She had so much fun and we're excited to take her back next year.

Casa Bonita

We went to Casa Bonita with some of John's family at the end of October. I have a love/hate relationship with Casa Bonita. It brings back so many fun memories from when I was younger. We used to come down to Denver with my youth group quite often and we would always make the trip to Casa Bonita. The food is absolutely horrible (seriously...like frozen mexican food horrible) but the entertainment and setting makes up for it. Plus the sopaipillas are to die for!!! Taylor had so much fun toddling all over the place and riding on the rides and she even liked the haunted house and giggled through all the scary parts. :) She wasn't too interested in the cliff divers but loved all the fun stuff in the arcade. I'm sure there will be many more belly aches suffered at Casa Bonita in our future :)

We couldn't get a good picture of all three of us. Taylor was too interested in the waterfall...
