Great Pumpkin Festival

On Saturday Tyler and I went to the Dallas Arboretum so we could enjoy their Pumpkin Festival. I also wanted to see the Barkitecture where architects around the metroplex build doggie houses, but when we got there we found out that they had taken it down that morning, even though the advertisement clearly said that the last day was the 18th which is when we went. I wasn't happy because I really wanted to see so I filed a suggestion card, maybe I'll get free tickets??? We still had fun. It was a nice cool day and their pumpkin stuff was beautiful. Here are some pictures.


They had volunteers taking pictures for free for people, but she wasn't very good. We still took advantage of it and had her take the above picture.


They had a little sign for all the different pumpkins that they used on their pumpkin house and it was neat to see the names of all the pumpkins.




I caught this little squirrel running around the pumpkins. He was so cute.


This is the back of the pumpkin house. It was a busy day at the Arboretum so it was hard to get pictures without random people being in it. This was the best we could do. :-)


The following are just some pictures of us. We traded off with different people that were kind enough to take our picture.




It was a good day. We had some yummy lunch at the arboretum and had fun walking around and seeing the different displays and gardens. I just love going to the arboretum. I can't wait to go there with our kids and get cute pictures of them one day.
