Pumpkin fun

We bought a pumpkin last weekend. Porgie was very excited. She helped daddy scrape out all the pumpkin seeds. She helped daddy carve out the eyes and mouth. She even helped light the candle inside the pumpkin. When everything was finished, the kiddos enjoyed playing with our newest Halloween decoration...

I think Izzy is feeling a little better today. There was a noticeable decrease in screaming. I am keeping my fingers crossed that he sleeps tonight. Wish me luck!

This will sound weird but that pumpkin looks kinda like Porgie... the expression, I mean!

I love your pumpkin! We have an uncarved pumpkin on our front step - but the squirrels have already eaten it. We'll have to do our official pumpkin closer to Halloween.

Is it me or do you second guess your spelling of "pumpkin" if you type it several times?...

Adorable! We need to go get our pumpkins, probably next weekend! Good luck tonight :)
