Fall Harvest party

Every year a family in my parents ward host a huge Fall Harvest Party. Everyone is welcomed. There is lots of food, activities and fun for all ages. We thought it would be fun to take the boys since they are getting big enough to grasp the concept of a holiday.
The Palmers, who host this party, have an incredibly beautiful home. It is nestled back to the Boise River on a couple of acres. It is a colonial looking home with a beautiful red barn. I love red barns!


To start it off, Spiderman and Batman parachutted into the party. All the kids loved that. We watched them jump out and land right in the middle of the party where they had a fenced off area for them to land.



Once they did all the kids ran to them to see if Spidermand and Batman really came to the party. Keaton was pretty excited about Spiderman so we took him up there to see him and get his picture with him. I think that made his night.

This year they had maccaroni for the kids. That was hit. They usullly have chili and cornbread and that doesn't sit too well in anyone's stomach if you ask me. Our good friend Mike showed up with his son Jacob. They are not members but yesterday I took a flier over to them to see if they were interested. I am so glad they came too.
It was fun to see everyon there. There were many faces I hadn't seen for awhile too.
Towards the beginning there was an airplane that flew down low and dropped buckets full of candy out into an open field for all the kids to find. Keaton had fun finding candy and putting it in his pumpkin.


Andrew still wansn't quite sure what was going on so I just followed as he ran around in the field. They have always done taht and it has been a big hit. They also have hayrides, stories by the fire, pumpkin painting and carving, a haunted hayride/corn maze. Unfortunatly our kids are too young for that so we took off before it got too cold. It was another hit this year. It is a fun way to start the Holiday spirit. I love this time of year! Here are some pictures from this evening. Enjoy!
