This was our third time going down to Half Moon Bay
to visit the amazing pumpkin patches but our
first time going to the Pumpkin Festival.
It was so fun and I would highly recommend it!
Funny Story: We were saving a spot on the side of the road for the parade
and had been there for at least 40 minutes when this guy with his camera comes and just stands
right in front of the kids. Up to this point in my life, I would definitely call myself non-confrontational
or maybe even a little on the wimpy side. Well now that I am thirty, I have found a whole new side of
myself. So I marched up to the guy and politely told him that he needed to move so the kids could see the parade. He looked at me like I was an idiot made a few grunting noises and moved on.
A few minutes later this older couple comes up and acts like they need to get through to cross the street
but then they stop and just stand there in our spot. I am now getting pretty annoyed that all these people
see our little group of young families and automatically assume that they can push us around. Well, I don't think so... So after 3 progressively more assertive comments to the couple, who act like
they don't know what I am talking about, we finally get our spot back! Now the kids and us
get to enjoy the parade from our front row seats.
Moral of the story: Don't mess with me, I'm thirty:)
