The weather was a bit warmer than what we had been getting in Seattle, which made it nice to be outside. Emilio enjoyed getting a push on the swing from his Aunt Katie, and Will took a turn on the swing, with some help from Mommy.
Will was a source of great entertainment for all. He demonstrated a new trick of sticking his tongue out of the side of his mouth.
That wasn't the only new trick Will showed us. He rolled over front to back for the very first time. It sort of surprised us, but everybody was in the room when he did it. From that point on, his cousins kept waiting for him to do it again, especially Gabriella and Aiyana, but it wasn't to be. They did spend a lot of time playing with him on the floor though.
I think they enjoyed having him over to play with very much.
On Saturday, we went to the Harvest Festival at the girls' school/church. Here is a picture of everybody plus two random guys (in basketball jersey and with their hands on their head). There we all kinds of games and activities to do, although mostly Will hung out in our arms.
Even long enough to take a catnap...
Halloween morning we went to a pumpkin patch to pick up a pumpkin to carve. You can tell we weren't in Seattle from all the sun.
Come the evening it was time for everybody to get into costume. Here are the farmers with their little pumpkin. He did quite well in it, although that's probably because he got to be held most of the time.
Here's the whole crew with a knight, cowboy, witch, pumpkin and 80's rock star.
Will made it through about half of the Trick-or-Treating before he got fussy and the three of us headed back so that he could go to bed.
We left early the next morning. It was a great visit and Will did well throughout, even with the changes in scenery and additional kids around. We'll look forward to our next trip down to visit.
