WaterFire and Pumpkin Picking with the Grandparents

What a busy weekend!  My parents were in town, which is always fun.  Saturday we headed down to Providence, where we enjoyed the last night of WaterFire, a sculpture of bonfires on the rivers of Providence.  It was really cool and entertaining.

On Sunday, we took Emmett on his first pumpkin picking excursion.  We stopped at Shelburne Farm in Stow, where Emmett seemed to thoroughly enjoy the farm animals, a big mound of hay, chewing on pumpkin stems (ugh) and riding tractors like a true farmer.

Mmm ... pumpkin stems

Mmmm ... pumpkin stems. Nom nom nom.

    WaterFire sounds so cool – I’ve heard a lot about it, but never seen it. Great pictures; they came out really well! And yay for pumpkin picking! Fall activities are the best. Especially, I’d imagine, with a little stem-chewer. My dad would love that tractor.
