Every fall, Hamilton has a fun pumpkin festival called Operation Pumpkin. This year we decided to check it out. We were totally unprepared, though, for the ginormous gourds we discovered there. We're talking pumpkins that nearly weighed a ton. As you can see, Jackson liked this creamsicle colored beauty. "Bobo!" he yelled. (Translation: "Pumpkin!")
Wyatt and Colby were just as thrilled. It was nice that the pumpkins were on display and the kids were welcome to touch them and see them up close.
Another beauty. And please note Wyatt's uniform--hoodie, comfy pants and boots. Every. Day.
In addition to giant pumpkins, there were some sizeable watermelons.
We also enjoyed seeing some amazing carved creations. Here, the boys show off Darth Vader.
Would you like to build a snowman?
And no trip to downtown Hamilton is complete without admiring the sculptures. The boys joined Lentil and Harmony in their parade down High Street. These statues are right across the street from Colby's school, and we pass them every day.
We also love Alexander Hamilton, or as we call him, Batman! Colby does a great impression of this statue, doesn't he?
