Pumpkinfest Fun

Make a Smilebox scrapbook

Abby and I live in the best small town in America! We headed downtown Friday night for activities and then headed back there on Saturday afternoon. Misha, Emily, Christina, Trisha, Ellie and the Creevy's all joined us there. We started at the pumpkin run. Abby could run through the park to pick up a pumpkin. She couldn't decide which one to grab and went between quite a few before settling on a great little round one. Then it was off to the sawdust search. The kids could search through sawdust for coins. Abby found a penny and decided she was done, which was a good thing because she quickly got a bloody nose. I'm beginning to think she might be allergic to hay!

Then it was off to the Critter Barn animals. This was the highlight of the evening for Abby. She loved the animals. There were bunnies, donkeys, goats, sheep, etc. She reached out to every single one and held a little bunny for quite a while. Then it was home for pizza and fun with our friends.

We were hopping on Saturday too! We headed off to our parent-tot swimming class and then downtown for the parade. My nephew was on a float so we waved and waved. There was candy to catch, family and friends to sit with, and funny floats to laugh at. What a great parade! Then it was off to mom and dad's for a birthday dinner. We were celebrating dad's birthday. It was a scrumptious meal complete with dessert and present giving. Dad got a new cordless drill and seemed quite excited.

What a great weekend!
