We have been spoiled again by having a few of our best friends from Kansas come hang out with us! Matt, Camie, Lydia & Clayton came to stay for Friday and Saturday, and we learned that you can squeeze a lot of fun into just over 24 hours. Highlights included a trip to Graeter's (yes, another one), brown poop (don't ask), a lot of Parker & Lydia mischief, guys' and girls' temple sessions and even a trip to the quilt shop for the girls (by divine intervention).We also hit the Circleville Pumpkin Show on Saturday. For as famous as it claims to be, it was not exactly a highlight of our weekend. Aside from a slew of pumpkin food booths and carnival rides, they did boast....
The World's Greatest Pumpkin Pie! To create this baby you need 96 pounds of cooked pumpkin and 36 pounds of pie dough, among vast amounts of other ingredients.
A Great Pumpkin Contest...I think the winning pumpkin weighed a little over 1500 pounds. I thought this one was cute.
A shot of the fam.
Matt, Peter & kiddos. I am bummed that I never got pictures with either Debbi or Camie during our visits! Guess that's the price you pay being the photographers.
We hit a pumpkin patch on the way home. You paid $15 for as many pumpkins as one person could carry in their arms from a distance of about 50 feet. There were so many cute pics that I had to do them in this mini slide show. Good times!
