We were able to go to Oktoberfest twice this year, and in its new location along Bayou St. John. We attended the second and third Fridays. Nopsi came out with us the first night, and while it was really hot, we all had a good time.
This was the first year I did the 2-mile NOTC Oktoberfest race, and it may be my last. The course was really dark and the fest was super crowded with all of the runners afterward. Plus it took away valuable beer sampling time!
Our second time at the fest was much more pleasant: cooler temps and less crowded. Uncle Jeff and Aunt E brought Kate and Luke out, and Jay, Katie, and Dylan ended up being there too. We had a really great night, despite Riley knocking over Kenny’s practically full beer. Oops. But I got to do the beer stein holding contest again!
In between our festing, Dana, Erin, and I met at the St. Augustine pumpkin patch after school one day to pick some fruit out. It was warm, Rory had an epic meltdown, and Riley wanted to take every fourth pumpkin home. Good times.
Happy fall, y’all, and have a wonderful weekend!

Your pumpkin patch pictures are so good every year. And we didn't hear of any Oktoberfest activities in Flavigny. I guess we're a little rural out here. But we do our part in the beer-drinking department!
