Pumpkin Walk 2011

We went to the Pumpkin Walk again this year for FHE. It was a lot of fun because Jefferson is older and found a lot more delight in the surroundings. He even got to pet a very large horse on the walk to the park. It was a little chilly and dark, but that did not diminish his joy at seeing all the pumpkins. I am often astounded at peoples' creativity and find myself a bit envious. There were some very nice scenes. I think the theme this year was " My Favorite Things". There were football scenes, movies, cartoons, humanitarian services, flower gardens, etc. Here are some of our favorites.

I love this picture of Jefferson. He was so excited he just could not keep still. Constant motion-that is what he is.

One of the most artistically painted scenes was Gilligan's Island. Gotta love those old reruns.

Gilligan and the Skipper- they had all the characters, but these were my favorite.

This is for Jeff and Kelli- the Calvin and Hobbs lovers. So funny!! Off to the side there was a girl and at her feet was a disassembled snow man and she was saying she didn't want to play anymore.

While I am not a huge fan of Winnie the Pooh you gotta appreciate Tiger and how he was put together- all pumpkins and squash. Very cute.

Where the Wild Things Are- very appropriate for Jefferson.

We had a great time and then headed over to my Aunt Jo's (or Purple Shirt, as Jefferson affectionately calls her) and Uncle Darwin's to visit and warm up before heading home. I love this time of year- the beginning of the Holidays and all the fun and tradition they bring.
