These were a few other, fun photos I captured from Halloween Day. I swear, Shelby must have piled 100 stickers on that pumpkin of hers.
Thanks Mom for Shelby's cute Halloween outfit!

Expect the Unexpected - Bonnie Spring Petting Zoo
For the first time in a LONG LONG time, I was kind of bored last Sunday! I decided we should go do something we've never done.....check out the Petting Zoo at Bonnie Springs. Like the Orchard, I had never been, but had heard about it for the longest time.
In summary: It was a fun expereince. Way overpriced ($27 for three of us). Surprising interesting assortment of animals! And kind of strange.
Upside: It is right at the base of the mountains, so it's beautiful and they have a train that is Shelby's dream come true.
It was rather chilly that day and Jack was a little under dressed, so unbeknownst to Shelby, she doubled as a space heater for Jack.
This was Shelby's look of disgust at all the chicken poop. I don't blame her.

Just Lovely
Last weekend Jack was extra tired and I was extra energized. So, while he caught a few extra hours of Zzzzzz's on Saturday morning, Shelby and I set out on an adventure. We drove to the far north part of the city to a place called Gilcrease Orchards. It was lovely! I have heard of this place for years and years, but had never checked it out. I heard on the radio that there were only 3 Saturday's left, so we set out for the unknown!
We. Had. The. Greatest. Time!
Gilcrease Orchards is a lovely destination where you can pick your own fruits and veggies, indulge in warm apple donuts, enjoy fresh air and ride the tractor-pulled hay rides. Shelby was in heaven and I returned feeling like I had just gone to Utah or something. It was so gorgeous!
I will for sure come back next year. Shelby and I picked some tomatoes, but to be honest, coming off pumpkin season, the whole place was pretty picked over. It was one of the most fun mornings I have maybe ever had with Shelby. Love my little Miss Sunshine.

Shelby's School Carnival
I love love love any opportunity to see Shelby at school, in her environment, with her friends. Her school recently sponsored a Halloween Carnival and fortunately, both Jack and I were able to make it! I even got there a little early to catch Shelby do some crafts with her friends :)
