Circleville Pumpkin Show!

Two new posts in two days! OMG! Anyhow... I realized, in posting about the big family weekend in October, that I forgot one of the many things going on that week: the annual Circleville Pumpkin Show! Beth and the rest of the our friends went earlier in the week, while I had rehearsal, so I went with both sets of parents during the day on Friday. It was our first pumpkin foray during daylight hours, although the place was no less busy. Take a look!

Huge crowds... lots of parents and kids. The town of Circleville mobilizes for the whole event. I'm guessing the local schools shut down.

All these pumpkins are driving me crazy! I'm out of my gourd.

As always, the huge line outside Lindsey's Bakery for fresh pumpkin donuts.Lots of things happen with pumpkins here, including all sorts of carving and funny shapes.With all sorts of delicious foods...

Look at that... it's November already! We totally missed posting at all in October. Amazing.

We don't have any huge updates at this moment, so I'll post some pictures from the past couple weeks. We've settled pretty well into the house and have hosted a number of visitors, including Mom & Dad Dekker, the entire Meyer family, Grammie & Pop-Pop Richards (Beth's maternal grandparents), our friend Zach Vicha from Chicago, and most recently our friends Brad & Kimberly Nydam from Grand Rapids. Here's some pics from the big family weekend:
