Fusion Preschool Fall Activites

Fusion Yuba City Fashion Show
Christopher school changed the parade to a fashion show do to the rain we had that week. It was really cute to see the kids get on the table and do their little walk. The school set up a little carnival inside, with a face painting station, bean bag toast, coloring, dancing, and treat -or- treating. Christopher and I made "Mummy Wrapped Hot dogs" for lunch and they were a hit. After the children ate lunch, then came the goodies, like cupcakes and cookies.






Bishop Pumpkin Farm
In the middle of the month Christopher Preschool went on a field trip to the Bishops out in Wheatland. Christopher was not feeling all so great that day, so i did not get any great group pics. But he still had a wonderful time with his class. They all got to ride the train, go on a hayride, got to go down the slide at marble mountain, and at the very end we all got a fresh cup of apple cider. mmmmm All in all it was a great day, but it was so hot. I think it was in the 90's that day. So i felt bad for the children that did not have the parents with them. We luckily brought my water pack, and we always had water. Teacher Micheyl reminded the children that the must pick a pumpkin they could carry. Christopher was happy to find his little baby pumpkin right away.

Bishop's Pumpkin Farm

This year was Christopher 1st trip to Bishop Pumpkin Farm. I also learned it was Jaime's too. At the beginning of the month before things got to crazy we met our Ranger friends and family down in Wheatland. This farm is so much fun. The have a train, hayrides, petting zoo, pig races, grave tractors, a wooden train, steel rocking horse, slides, and even a old train that is real. The also have homemade crafts and food. The Bookholtz's and Jimerfields's met us down there to have a great time too.
The family picture, should have done it when everyone was awake and happy

The Train ride around the farm

The old train. Him and Dylan had a blast playing and running
The gravel pit tractors, this was a super fun one.
We bought Chris some food to feed the goats. The food was in Ice Cream cones. I was surprised he wanted to feed them. After awhile he was picking the baby goats up and carrying them around. After i left i seen a sign that read "Don't let your children pick up the animals" oh well.
They had this huge area were the laid down old mattresses and threw hay over it. The children could run, jump and bounce. It was really fun to watch.
This wooden train was pretty cool. We stayed here for a while


Ranger Tom, Josh, and Jaime got in on alittle rocking horse action too.


Dylan and Christopher were too cute. They wanted to try and pick them up, but as you can see they were way too big.


We all enjoyed the hay ride but Jaime, he was trying to get out of it the whole time. But it was fun watching Chris and the other boys pick  their pumpkins.

Marble Mountain was alot of fun, just big slides on the mountain. When its time to leave they give you alittle bag and you can get 10 marble out of the water. The kids just love it.

Pink October









Pink October: Geweke's Caring for Women Foundation.  Pink October started 13 years ago as a single 5K Race for Awareness. It has grown into 6 events. It is pretty cool that they have something like this in our area. I asked my mother to do it over a month ago, but she said, she would be working. So of course she waiting until the day before to tell me she was coming. It all worked out and the 3 of us had a wonderful day. Next year we might be alittle more organized. It is always hard going to a event for the first time. You never know what to accept. Last year they had only 720 people, this year they had over 1200. So of course they were alittle unorganized too. They ran out of shirts and etc. Luckily we both got one.
