It's the Great Pumpkin!

Linking up here and here today!

On Friday, we headed to one of my favorite festivals our great state of West Virginia has to offer.  The Pumpkin Festival in Milton!!  We try to go to this every year..they have the biggest pumpkins on display that were grown around the state as well as some tasty treats (pumpkin ice cream!).    The weather was perfect and it was a great day!

The pumpkins!

The biggest one this year..it weighed in at 951 pounds!


Baby Girl had a good time too!

We had to take a picture here instead of the 'prettier' display..a certain other mommy and her little daughter were hogging the display area taking pictures..which I don't mind..but give other people a chance too!

Who cares about the pumpkins..walking in this grassy/hay-like area is more fun!

Not much into looking at the camera...

The one picture I managed to get of Damon..he got some fresh roasted corn to eat..yum!

Cute old stage coach


I thought the display of american flags on the bank this year was absolutely gorgeous!  Usually they line up (in rows) pumpkins that the school children have decorated here..but this year they put them somewhere else (right where you come in) and put the flags on the banks this year..MUCH better and so nice!!

After all the craziness from the previous days events, the trip to the Pumpkin Festival this year was definately what the doctor ordered!!

  1. She is adorable. I love this time of year - but I always wonder about how they make the giant pumpkins.
