The kids loved the slides, we spent a while watching them run around and try out all the different slides. Michela and Hunter were so sweet with Aria and took her with them. Here's a cute one of them all sliding down.
Chase was all over the place. This is the only time I could catch him to take a picture.
There was a huge pumpkin tower in the middle of the field. There were some really cool carved pumpkins.
Mike was trying to teach Michela how to lasso a steer.
And he did it!
Hold on tight Aria, don't let him get away!
The highlight of the evening for Aria was the Pumpkin Princess Playland. There were princess dresses to try on and a pumpkin carriage. Aria cracks me up. Her whole attitude changes when she slips on a princess dress. She tiptoes, twirls and holds herself like a real lady. She was in heaven sitting in "Cinderella's" carriage.
All the grandkids looked pretty darn cute sitting on these enormous rocking chair.
After the big kids went through the haunted monster ("It was freaky," they said.) we all went for a ride on the grain train. A tractor pulled these old grain carts around a dirt track. 
The big kids also loved the go karts.
For the grand finale we attempted going through the corn maze. Michela had brought a map and had the way all drawn out. The only problem was it was pitch black. I had wanted to do this when it was lighter, but we didn't get around to it until it was late. It didn't help that Mike and Matt aren't the most patient of fellows. :) Plus I think we didn't start where Michela had drawn out her path. Needless to say, we didn't make it too far before we started back, going a bit off road in our attempt to make a beeline to the entrance.
We did have a fun night though. Next year we will make sure we bring flashlights, snacks for the kids and start a little bit earlier. Thanks Stakers for the fun time!
