Halloween is such a fun holiday.  This is the first time in their lives that our kids will celebrate it here in the US.  Previously we have always been over seas by now.  A lot of places we have lived don’t really celebrate it.  Some places do a little bit.  Most places we have lived though it’s extremely hard to find pumpkins.  I know that sounds weird, but it’s true.  Especially the big orange ones that make such great Jack-0-Lanterns  I have always felt bad that I couldn’t take my kids to pumpkin patches and trick or treating.  This year we had the chance to go to Thanksgiving Point where they had a plethora of pumpkins, rides, hay stacks, mazes, etc.  Not only that, but the kids were able to go with some of their cousins.  They had a blast and of course the first question asked when we left was when we would be able to go back.
