Happy Halloween!
We have been having fun this fall at the Curtis Dojo. Riley is getting older and is able to do more this year. Riley's daycare had a few activities for Halloween. On Friday, they were allowed to dress up. Her class had a party and went trick or treating around the daycare. We bought Riley's butterfly costume about a month ago. Riley will play with it, but had refused to get in it. Jason managed to put it on her once, and she had a total melt down. This week he tried again with a little more success.
So Friday, Riley was pretty much the only child in her class without their costume on. When I picked her up though, her teacher did say Riley wore it during trick or treating, and even put the top on once. Riley was assigned cookies for her party, so my friend Molly, the queen of all things yummy, came over to help. I was very supportive and watched most of the time. Our last piece of news is that we have painted the game room. I'm finding that once you paint one room, the next one looks funny. Here is a before picture: And here is after (the two color thing was Jason's idea!)

Jason heard about a great pumpkin patch right around the corner from us. It's Honeysuckle Hill Farm in the town just north of us (http://www.honeysucklehillfarm.com/). They have a corn maze, hayrides, trains, petting farm, a corn box, and a pumpkin patch. So today, we checked it out.
Riley liked the corn maze, so we walked through it twice.
The corn box was a big box full of corn kernals. Riley wasn't interested, even when Jason went in with her.
They had a huge playground area. Riley went down a huge slide by herself. She said "Woah!" when she got off.
Riley really seemed to like the petting zoo. She wasn't sure about the cow until Jason said to pet it like she does the puppies. Riley said "puppy!" then pet the cow.

McDonalds!
Riley finally got to go to McDonalds! One of Jason's work-out buddies' daughter was having a small party. Riley didn't care for the chicken nuggets, but liked the fries and chocolate milk. Riley really enjoyed climbing. She's been climbing all over the house, so she was ready to go.
Jason helped her down the first time, but Riley quickly got the hang of it.
This takes a while, but this is Riley going down the slide by herself.
