Pumpkin Patch and Tyler Plays Soccer week 4

We've had a busy week here! 

If you haven't heard, I was able to get a few things going and open my Etsy shop.  More items will come after Nov., but there are some cute things there now.  BSU fans and Halloween lovers should check it out!

Wednesday, Tyler's class had a field trip to the pumpkin patch.  We went to a smaller, local farm and everyone seamed to have a good time.  The trip was complete with a hay ride to the field, pumpkins to take home, hay bale maze and rope swings. 
He loved the rope swings...

 On top of the maze...
 Getting ready to head out to the field...
 Checking things out along the way...
 We walked around a bit, but then they spotted Mrs. Amanda and had to follow...
 Found one!
 Back to the tractor before heading back in...
 Excited to have found pumpkins!
 They had a few animals this year, so we checked out the pigs.
 Mmmm Snack! 
 We had a good time.  Hopefully we can fit in a trip for Cody in the next couple of weeks.

Thursday was week 4 of soccer class.  He had a different coach this week, but he was a ton of fun and the kids really liked him.  They worked on playing as a team, sharing and passing the ball. 
Learning about spacing, so as not to be all up in your team mates business...
 Finding out what's next...
 Next came passing, Ty helped to show what they were supposed to do.  
Wait for it....
 Get in front of it and squash it to a stop....
 pass it back! 
 Then they all took turns with each other and coach rotated around to each kid. 
 Then it was game time...
 Break away! 
 Shoot..... and a miss, but close! 
 They all cheer when they score a goal...
 It was nice to watch the game, he set it up and they worked on passing the ball, not just bunching around it.

Finally they had a race to pick up all the cones...

Not sure what all the weekend will bring!  We are headed over to the Bella Vista Homecoming game tonight as a couple of the boys from the shop are driving new convertibles with the Homecoming Court.   The boys area excited to watch some football in person.  I'm trying not to think about the fact that we are rooting for a team that's Red and Black (Boise Colors) instead of my beloved Green and Gold (Borah Colors).
Soccer and who knows what else will come as well.
