We are working on our letters, and this week was F. In that spirit I need to say,
Fall is for Festivals:)
We heard about a festival for the largest pumpkin weigh-in for Iowa and surrounding states.
We had to check it out.
It was in a small town 45 minutes from us.
We felt like we were sneaking into their town party.
It was fun.
One story: we were walking through the festival looking for the pumpkins and we asked a older couple who were sitting in their lawn chairs watching the people. They sweetly gave us directions, and on our way back 1/2 hour later we heard someone yell to us...
"how did you like the pumpkins?"
It was the same couple, they genuinely seemed interested in how the boys liked the pumpkins.
We chatted with them a bit,
there is a friendliness in Iowa that is super special.
That is a big pumpkin, but Quint was not very impressed....he thought they would be as big as a car
The pumpkins......
We think this was the winner!
