Fall Fun!

Today we wandered up the Interstate to Mt Vernon, MO
to Apple Butter Makin' Days!




We got hamburgers & corn on the cob from the FFA booth! Yum




There they are cookin the burgers:





Bought some apple butter from the Lions Club:





Isn't the courthouse on the Square beautiful?


This man was being interviewed by the local tv station.
It takes all day to make the apple butter.


This young man was taking his turn stirring.
Note all that stacked wood for the fire.





there were food booths and craft booths all over the Square and on surrounding streets.



Meanwhile, up north, Jay took his little family to the Hartsburg Pumkin Festival. A little town of about 100 residents hosts this ta doo that brings in about 30,000 visitors!
Our Future Valevictorian had the time of her life!





H got a pink butterfly on her cheek!



Gotta love me some!



Baby Jay just LOVED the pumkins!
"I like this one:"
