Hallowe'en in Greenfield Village


Fall fun at Greenfield Village

Mickey Mouse bundled & ready to go

Poor Mia can't move

The line of pumpkins that greeted us at the front gates

Mia still can't move but at least she has her costume off (we left her hat on so it looked like she was still wearing the entire thing)

Ethan's favorite pumpkin he saw

One of the workers

More pumpkins


A little chilled but having a great time

.....and more jack-o-lanterns

Daddy and his voice of reason vote to take Mia out of her costume


My what a difference 5 days makes in our weather! Sunday it was 90 degrees and today in was in the lower 50s. Tonight we went to Hallowe'en in Greenfield Village. Over 800 hand carved pumpkins lit the way around the village as we went from station to station trick or treating. Because it got down to 40 degrees tonight we had to bundle up the kids. Ethan handled the bundling & the cool weather well. Mia however wasn't impressed with it. In fact she only made it to the end of the parking lot in her costume. The problem was she was so bundled up that she couldn't sit in her stroller. She really did look like the kid from A Christmas Story. Once we got her out of her costume, she seemed to be much more comfortable. We spent about an hour walking around getting lots of goodies and looking at the pumpkins. (They were even giving away beanie babies) Ethan had such a great time he asked when we could go back and do it again!
