The Pumpkin Patch & A Visit From Grandma Judy

We were lucky enough to have Judy come visit us for a week in October. It took Sarah about 2 seconds to decide she was a grandma and therefore her best friend. Sarah loved having Judy here to play with her. One of the first things we did together was go to a pumpkin patch to pick out our Halloween pumpkins.

 They had goats & a horse, so it was obviously a good day.

 Headed into the field to find the perfect pumpkin

 Picking out a pumpkin is serious business.

 Yep, she is adorable. 

 A ghost! Sarah knows that ghosts say ooooooo!!

 We picked out a bumpy one and a flat, white one.

 Picking out pumpkins was so much fun!

 On Saturday, we went to a parade and festival in Driver, the tiny community just down the road from us. We love the small towns around here.

 After the parade, we rode the ferry across the James River from Isle of Wight to Jamestown and then drove down to Williamsburg. Sarah thought it was pretty exciting riding on a boat in the car.

We had fun exploring Colonial Williamsburg, starting with this awesome old church and graveyard.

 The inscriptions on these old headstones are so cool. 

This church was attended by almost all of the founding fathers, along with many other famous people from American history.

Before we left to take Judy to the airport, Sarah was kind enough to cover her whole arm in stickers. It was a sad moment when Sarah woke up from her car nap to discover that Grandma was gone. Thanks for coming to visit, Judy!
