Yet another pumpkin festival...

Today, Uncle Justin and I took Grace and Ella to yet another pumpkin festival. It was in Northfield at an elementary school that one of Justin's friends teaches at. It took like 45 minutes to get there, but the girls were really good the whole way there and back in the car, so it wasn't bad at all. Plus, I got to spend some quality time with my bro. It was really fun, (and most of the stuff there was free!). Grace got another pumpkin painted on her cheek and they both picked out pumpkins (my house is going to be a pumpkin patch pretty soon.) They both got balloon animals that they popped after 30 seconds. Grace and Ella ate donuts and cookies, painted their pumpkins, and played with some other kids. It was perfect weather, too!


Ella with Uncle Jay. A lot of people tell us they look alike. He loves to hear that.



All of the pumpkins were out in the front lawn of the school. It was nice because the kids could just walk around in the open and look at all the pumpkins. Ella tries to pick up pumpkins that even I couldn't pick up.



Ella got a dog balloon animal and Grace got an alligator (which she calls agillator) balloon animal. Ella had hers for about 30 seconds before it popped and Grace had hers for about 60 seconds. Even after they were in pieces and partially popped, they both still played with them!


Painting pumpkins...again.
