2nd Annual Belvedere Pumpkin Pickin'...

We made our second annual family trip to Belvedere Plantation this year for some fun and pumpkin' pickin'! They made several new additions to the place, like permanent bathrooms, concessions stands, games, and more! You can see pics of last years visit HERE...I had forgotten JR had all the fuzz on his face...



I took a few pics of the games the Little Brat could do this year, that she wasn't big or strong enough to do last year...they grow up TOO FAST! Here's a zip-line thingy she just LOVED!

..and she actually hung on there all by herself...

..all the way to the end...impressive!

...this was a big deal for LB, show is dead set on doing EVERYTHING by herself.

Here is another thing she was not big enough to do last year...she has officially upgraded from the pedal tractors to the pedal go-cart!

..and what's a visit to Belvedere without a trip through the Maize Maze? A Bummer, I tell ya! We threw caution to the wind and scrapped the directions...the truth is, none of us could read them anyways...

Just a nice Daddy-Daughter shot as we waited for the hay ride to the pumpkin patch...

...where we each found the most perfect specimen to make our own...

..and after we got home, we went straight to guttin' them out and makin' us some Jack-O-Lanterns...less the candles...I ALWAYS forget the candles!

..and here are our final masterpieces...that would be JR on top, then the Little Brat, Mommy, Tyler, and Kaiti...the 2 smallest creations are baby pumpkins I carved up for Baby A and Baby B...I am sorry to report that shortly after this picture was taken, Ginger ate the babies...

Happy Holidays!
