We had so much fun last year and had to check out this year's Stone Mountain's Pumpkin Festival. The ads are a little bit confusing and makes you assume that you have to purchase an adventure pass to get to the festival. Wrong! Only thing needed is a park entrance which cost $7/car. We have a family membership to Stone Mountain so it worked out even better! My family was in town for that weekend and they joined us in our adventure as well!
Silly boy had so much fun messing with the pumpkins and rolling around the hay.
He loved the painting section. It's apparent how confident and used to William is doing art work. It's part of their weekly curriculum at daycare. As soon as he saw the paint brushes, table and chairs, he knew what the drill was.

Me, Rupel and Wynell. Amazing how we've all shared so many milestones together.

It was a very family friendly event and William had a blast!
The games were so fun! Everybody was really getting into it.
One of the hostesses create this diaper cake and she did a wonderful job.

At the very last minute, I found this "Ati-Atihan" ( a feast held every January in the town of Kalibo in the province of Aklan on the island of Panay, is the wildest among Philippine fiestas. Celebrants paint their faces with black soot and wear bright, outlandish costumes as they dance in revelry during the last three days of this week-long festival) shirt at our local Filipino store. Shirt was a 5T, had to wash and dry it a lot to shrink it some :)
Guess, who showed up as the schools special guest --- Dora, the Spanish Explorer!
Here's Ed and Aunt Sonja setting up the cake and ice cream table.
It was a very special day indeed! He has not seen most of his family for quite some time .
Granddaddy liked his blow up walker.
Happy Birthday young man!
