Fall Festival

This was our first year attending the Mt. Bethal fall festival.  Since it's half a mile up the street (literally) we decided to join in this years festivities.  Jay signed us up for the mile fun run and we got to walk with some of our favorite friends.  Notice I said walk and not run...

Me with JH.  Sarah with Maggie, Hunter, and Avery.  Ragan with Charley.


Daddy and John Henry posing during the race.  Clearly we didn't take it too seriously.

After the race we headed over to the festival with our friends.  John Henry got his own tickets that he could use for whatever he wanted.  As you can see below, he wanted to use them as a chew toy.

Hunter and John Henry.  These boys are constantly eating.  At least Hunter is eating food and not paper!

We decided to use the tickets for a pony ride.  John Henry refused to let go of his remaining tickets but he was quickly became interested in his pony.  I can't remember the pony's name.  It was something like buttermilk, butternut, squash, something..

When John Henry finally let go of his tickets he realized he could pet the pony.  He loved it and wanted to have his hands on the pony (not the saddle) throughout the entire ride.

Hunter and Clint.  Doesn't Hunter look like a natural?

Maggie all grown up!

Avery loved it! 

The boys waiting to take a ride on the train.  Why is it that Hunter and John Henry are never smiling in these pictures???

After the pony ride we walked.  Then we walked some more.  This is John Henry's favorite thing to do right now.  He does not want to sit still, as documented below.

Sorry Hunter.  Don't take it personally.  It wasn't you.  John Henry was just in a walking and not sitting mood.  Maybe next time!
