Pumpkin Dreams

PhotoStory Friday
Hosted by Cecily and MamaGeek



I realize that this picture is slightly blurry, but considering I had no tripod and was attempting to steady myself, sans flash, at night, with 12 screaming kids galloping around me.... Well, lets just say that I'm proud of myself.

Marvel Girl (center, see the lovely locks?) and her friends marveled at the newly lit pumpkins after our pumpkin carving celebration.

Ah! The wonder of a child.

May she never realize it is a dead gourd with it's guts scooped out inhabited by a burning wax object.

My 4 year old grabbed the pumpkin and a butter knife last night and said he was going to carve it.

Oh you are? I thought? I convinced him to draw a face on it in crayon that we can actually cut out later!

I love this picture! Reminds me of how I felt as a kid - wish I could get some of that back :0)

Diva came home from school ready to light the pumpkins - I convinced her to wait until dark

It is? Well thanks for the kick in the teeth. What's next, are you going to tell me there's no Great Pumpkin?
It's a very nice shot, by the way.
