It's the Great Pumpkin... Festival!




Sunday was a very fun, beautiful day that we spent at Hunsader Farms with the Kotters, the Rileys and the Youngs. The kids had a blast playing, riding the ponies, jumping on the trampolines, tormenting the livestock and generally creating havoc around themselves. The pumpkin shooter was pretty amazing (apparently the contraption sent the pumpkins more than 2000 feet! Crazy!) It was very "down home" (eating deep fried stuff on the fly and sitting on the grass in the shade) and Sara admired my "Bradentucky feet" -- flip flops in the dirt and grass. A great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. We should make it an annual tradition.

Yes, it was fun, sorry we pooped out so fast! I never did get a nap. Of course, the kids slept in the car! See you soon!

I totally miss Hunsader Farms. We always had such a fun time there with Lila. Now the pumpkin patches require three layers, boots, hats and gloves! It's da** cold in Iowa already! But,on the bright side....I filled up my car yesterday for $1.99 a gallon!

Blink! Reread! You read it right!
