Stonewall Pumpkin Festival

Hello World! Yeah, it's been a long while. Moving, new job, trying to buy a house. Lots of excuses.

Anyhow. Here are some pictures from this weekend's Stonewall Pumpkin Festival at the Van Hoosen Dairy Farm in the "historic" Stony Creek village in our neighborhood.

First there was the hay ride. Actually there were several hayrides because Jamie loves tractors. He cried every time we had to get off. Poor kid.

Off we go!

Next we went and picked out our pumpkin.

Then we hopped back on the hay wagon and took the pumpkin to the carving station. Actually we made a side trip to play on the hook-and-ladder truck.

Jamie loves firetrucks almost as much as tractors.

Back to the carving tables:

Guts!
