Today Ben picked me up at my place as he was headed down to Carp to meet up with some of the people who attended the camping trip I went to over Labor Day weekend. We stopped first at a local brewery where they tried some of the beers, and I ate pretzels, since I’m not a beer drinker. Next we walked down the block and ate at a little Italian place. I think we picked the wrong time of day, as the service was a little slow, but overall it wasn’t too big of a deal.

After the meal we all headed to the pumpkin patch where Ben and I picked up a few pumpkins. He is keeping my pumpkin for the time being, and I will go over so we can carve pumpkins together. The pumpkin I got is a little on the large (and heavy!) side, but it had a nice smooth side to it, which should work nicely for whatever design I decide to put on my pumpkin this year. I will probably do my staple “Happy Halloween” one, since I really like that pattern, but maybe I’ll be adventurous and try something else. We shall see.

I had fun just hanging out and going to those couple places. I can’t wait to carve my pumpkin and show Ben how awesome it is (I mean, there IS a reason I won the pumpkin carving contest at my old job 2 years in a row, after all….)

Nope. I think the first year there were 4 pumpkins, and the second year there were 6. So, I’m not as crazy as you think. ;)
