Pumpkin patch, 2006

Nora checks out the Cinderella pumpkins

We had a great time at a pumpkin patch at a real farm with Malcolm's friends, Max and Ethan, and their families. Particularly entertaining: running through the scary haunted house (Malcolm's first); visiting the rather fragrant sows in their pen; and picking vegetables in the fields with the dads.

This Halloween Malcolm and Nora went trick-or-treating for the first time, with Malcolm as fantastically muscular Spider-Man and Nora as a lady in pajamas with a large purse (her choice!). They had a blast!
