Our First Morton Pumpkin Fest

Today we went to our first ever Morton Pumpkin Fest with my friend Emily and her kiddos.


Addie and Madeline had so much fun riding on the motorcycles together.


Then we had to try some pumpkin ice cream.


Emily and I loved all the displays made out of pumpkins...someday I'll have to enter this competition.


A couple days later our whole family came back to watch the parade.  People start lining up their lawn chairs on the parade route a week before hand...it's hilarious to see as you drive down Jefferson the week of the Pumpkin Fest.


The parade is amazing and lasted over 1 1/2 hours!!!  The kids got loads of candy to share with mom and dad of course.  Can't wait until next year when we can just walk up to the parade route from our new house!!!
