While trying to kill some time, before the trick or treating extravaganza, we decided to go to a local market for a hayride. Not only was there a hayride, there were also bunny rabbits…
Pony rides…
a hay tunnel…
a hay pyramid…with some loose hay at the bottom to jump into…
and last, but certainly not least, a hay maze…
complete with a hay covered lollipop…
life in the Garden State is good…

Chloe’s First School Halloween Party:
This was not the first, second, third, fourth or fifth attempt at this picture. I left after Tinkerbell said she had to go potty. This is a good as its going to get!
According to Chloe, they had a hayride, an elephant ride, and they saw ponies. I was not allowed to stay, but they promised me they would post the picture on a password enabled website. I’ll see what I can do to post those once I see them.

Try and say that ten times fast!
My BFF Matt’s girlfriend, Sara, sent us an invite for the Brooklyn Children’s Museum annual fundraiser, and we thought, “Why the hell not!” Chloe had a blast, we got a year passport for any of the children’s museums listed in their network, a tax write off, and did I mention Chloe had a blast?
Sadly, we also discovered that Brooklyn is a two-hour-drive from our humble abode. Of course, that won’t stop us from returning…I mean, seriously, we drive an hour and a half to go to the children’s museum in Philly.
For those of you who are keeping score, the Brooklyn Children’s museum was pretty cool. There are definitely some similarities between it and the Please Touch Museum in Philly, but Brooklyn museum had a lot more animals, and a really cool toddler section. (Chloe would have been happy to just play there for the entire two hours.)
I liked that they had a lot of animals the kids could look at and even touch. Part of the “Block Party” was museum volunteers walking around holding snakes and lizards that the kids could touch and pet. Chloe was pretty brave, and touched everything. I am proud of her too, she was very gentle and respectful of the animals.
We only got to see about 1/3, maybe 1/2 of the museum because it took us much longer to drive there than we had anticipated. So, we will definitely go back again when we can spend more time.
Chloe voluntarily playing in a sand box! This was a HUGE step for us, considering she would even walk in sand last year.
