A couple of weekends ago, on a beautiful fall day, we headed to the pumpkin patch to hunt and trap the most perfect pumpkins we could find. Naturally, we documented the event (with our piece of crap camera- sorry all the pics are blurry!).
Ben took off for the maze with grandma and the cousins after we forced these pictures on the boys, so the rest of the pictures are, like every post, of just Jake. But he's cute, so you can't really complain!
The cheesy family picture. Tonight we cut, gutted and carved up the pumpkins:
I get pretty competitive carving pumpkins. I'm always sure mine are going to be way better than John's. Most of the time I'm right. This year, I think we might have, maybe, sorta-kinda tied. But only because I ever-so-graciously drew the design on his pumpkin for him. Otherwise... I would have kicked some serious pumpkin carving butt!
I'm not sure why the skull's light is brighter. Maybe because it's the best out of the three??? (Mine are the skull and ghost. John's is the spider.)And then, because we believe in eating what we kill, using this yummy recipe, we ate up the insides:

Love the pictures! So cute!
I was confused by the pumpkin sign at first. I thought it said Happy Fall, but then noticed it was an H and thought it was Happy Hall...then I figured out (finally) that it was probably Halloween. I thought maybe your pumpkin patch owner didn't know how to spell.
Your pumpkins rock! So cute! I hope you guys havea fun halloween!
We did the craving today and I totally suck at it. DH is the creative mind in our home when it comes to drawing and painting. I am only good with fabric and thread.
I love your family pics. Lovely!
Yay for pumpkins and killing them. You do carve a mean pumpkin. Love all the pics.
I LOVE the pictures too! Your boys are DARLING! And you are always such a babe Liz! Hilarious that you get all competitive with the pumpkin carving. They look pretty darn good!
