Halloween: Pumpkin Style

Happy Halloween to all my blogging friends on this side of the pond!   I am so excited as this is the first year that all of my kids costumes coordinate with each other-- and with that big teaser- you will just have to wait and see what their costumes are as I plan on taking pictures and doing a Halloween shoot today.

So instead- you get to meet our pumpkins.  Yes- we name them (okay so only two got names).

Upper Left is Ryder's pumpkin which he named Happy.  He goes around all day saying "there is my happy" it really is so cute.
Then comes Alex's her happy/scary face with cheeks even
Then is Lucas' named Spookster
Then my pumpkin!  Which I painted and then cut out the windows and moons.

The kids each designed their own- drawing their faces on their pumpkins.

Ryder drew his all on his own

Alex not only drew a picture but wrote all sorts of names and things on the back of hers. Which no, we did not carve the back.

Then the next night (as we ran out of time) it was carving time!

And then the fun part- the cleaning out

She wasn't so sure about this

He would have nothing to do with it

And Ryder- he dug right in..... only to discover maybe he didn't want to do it either

But in the end- everything turned out just right

Have a Happy and Safe Halloween

And don't forget to come back tomorrow for Proud Mommy Moments with Kmama and me!
