Parades and Pumpkins!

Two weeks ago we went to Swiss Days in Santa Clara. It is the celebration of the Latter-Day Saint Swiss pioneers who gathered here in Santa Clara. Emily and Audrey LOVED the candy. Emily, of course, was afraid of everything, so Ryan held her a lot of the time. I held Audrey most of the time. She thought everyone was out to get her, especially Sebastian, the crab from Little Mermaid.



Yesterday, we went to the Staheli Farm and Pumpkin Patch. Emily loved the "jumping pillow," which I am sad we didn't take a picture of. Audrey, on the other hand, not so much. I would say it was better than a trampoline. Emily pet the pony and other animals, while Audrey wandered off to the pigs.

Emily liked the corn slide, as long as Dad was there to catch her. They both enjoyed the large swings, and the cow train ride, which we didn't take pictures of.

We also went on a "wagon" ride to the pumpkin patch. Emily did not like the witch, but Dad decided she needed to confront her fears. So, he made her take a picture with her.
