One of the moms organized a super fun lawn games activity day at Cuesta Canyon Park – costumes included! Cato was getting a little bored racing trucks at the playground during setup time, but then he was “Game on!!” focused and excited once the games started. To wrap up the outing, Mohawk Warrior got a hair blow dry in the bathroom, lol.
While Du and Chris participated in The Bovine Gravel race, Cato, Grandma, and Breana checked out the 46 Ranch fall pumpkin patch and activities. They had lots of fun activities to check out! Cato’s #1 favorite was the Jump Pad, and the Gem Stone Mining came in a close 2nd.
We met up with Margaret, Wyatt, and Levi to check out the Children’s Museum up in Paso Robles. The boys had a blast with the tunnel tree even though Cato just wanted to play tackle. The other hits remain the ball pit (grapes themed) and the air powered ball mazes.
Du volunteered to help Uncle Ed harvest his grapes and make wine this year, so we had a family hang out to watch Ed and Du work crushing the grapes. Cato even got his own bucket of cabernet grapes to crush the old-fashioned way! He was even more excited to eat grapes off the vine, though, lol.
Watch out, Atascadero—we’ve got a new power bowler on the lanes! Cato took on the mini-bowling lanes at Wild Fields Brewhouse, and it’s fair to say the pins didn’t stand a chance. Check out the video below to see the pure, unadulterated joy after he rolled an absolute laser of a ball right down the center for a clean strike. Pure toddler hype at its finest!
Another fun outing with Ashley, Parker, and Hudson! The boys didn’t get to pick the apples, but it was still fun doing a tasting and running through the orchard. Mondays Trucks were also in attendance, per usual.

Fall has arrived, and we kicked the season off with a trip to Avila Valley Barn with Ashley, Parker, and Hudson. We managed to escape only $9 down for the 3 heads of lettuce to feed the animals (we declined paying for the maze, tractor rides, u-pick flowers, ice cream, pumpkins, produce, etc). Cato’s favorite activity had nothing to do with the Barn… he was just ecstatic to wrestle on the grass with Parker and Hudson rolling all over each other 🤣
The Bob Jones Trail once again was a complete hit, and Cato is getting so fast on his bike! This was our first time checking out the Central Coast Aquarium, and Cato had fun checking out all the displays. It took some courage (and Mom doing it first), but he even got to touch a star fish and swell shark!
Two hours norte from Atascadero with a toddler, and we survived! Gilroy Gardens (kids amusement park) is absolute paradise for the little guy—think garlic-themed tilt-a-whirls, slow trains, and giant trees. I was mostly just holding on for dear life on the artichoke ride, but hey, the kid gave it five stars.
