Walker Weekend and Pumpkin Carving

We had a Walker weekend and did the annual Walker pumpkin last weekend. Shantel and the kids went up to Wyoming and played up there on Friday. Then on Saturday morning we all hiked to the M and then did pumpkin carving that night.

In Wyoming they went and did horseback riding and the kids loved it. Especially Lydia thought it was amazing and she did a great job leading the horse around.

Lydia rode Bar (who is very old). Here she is brushing the horse with Grandpa.

They climbed on the haystacks.

Saturday morning we all hiked the M and it was fun, but so steep. It is not long, but it is straight up to start. He kids did great. 

Here is Lydia celebrating making it all the way to the top.

One thing to note is that Austin did amazing! I carried Caleb in the carrier, but that meant Austin had to walk on his own. It is really step and he did it like a champion and just climbed up the hill with no trouble at all. 

That afternoon the kids worked with Grandpa to make a zipline in the backyard. It was not quite high enough, but the kids loved it anyway.

 

 
We finished with pumpkin carving. Lydia and worked on one pumpkin. We made a puppy face and had so much fun working on it. Lydia drew it on a paper and then helped me carve it in. (I also did a mountain with moon landscape/pirate face - but let's pretend I didn't, my pumpkin carving skills are poor).

Meanwhile, Caleb helped Shantel while they made a cool drilled out design with a moon in the sky.

Happy Halloween!
