Pumpkins, Pumpkins and more Pumpkins!

I have fallen very behind on my blogging, but I've got to start somewhere, so I figured I would start with .......a pumpkin post. First of all, my dad came out a few weeks ago and stayed with us for the weekend, it was great getting to see him. The first thing he wanted to do was buy some pumpkins and decorate them with glitter......that's right, glitter. So, we spent the first few hours together buying pumpkins, spray paint and glitter.

Here is a photo of my dad's decorated pumpkin: (notice the pinky raise)


Here is the pumpkin Jason decorated:

Well, Dad......do you see where I'm going with this?
Your pumpkin: Small, Glittery, "Cute"
Jason's pumpkin: Large, Manly, Scary
I think you get my point here.
Next event, Jason and I hit up the pumpkin festival. It was so much fun. My favorite thing about the festival? Pumpkin Donuts.....yummmmy. They are incredible. Here are some photos of the pumpkins at the pumpkin festival:


And last but not least, here is the pumpkin I carved this year. I am very proud of my artwork. It is Frankenstein........or as we say in my family-Frankenspine.
