Halloween Pumpkins All Aglow



We are coming up on Halloween. A time of carving pumpkins, making costumes, buying candy and going "Trick or Treat"ing.

Halloween was always one of my favorite times of year. The kids and I would decorate the house with handmade ghosts and goblins. Spiderwebs would be everywhere and our carved pumpkins would be welcoming our trick or treaters. Every year we'd carve 4 pumpkins some were funny or scary, crazy faces, upside faces and happy faces. Oh, the fun we had with 'innards' fights and the mess we'd made!




Black cats and cauldrens, scarecrows and cornstalks surrounding by bales of hay and leaves created the perfect outdoor platform to display our pumpkins when the kids were young. As the years progressed and the kids got older we started to go towards the scarier decorations like the Grim Reaper Skull with Candle Lantern. Super Awesome is what our son always called it.

Those were the days and here's to another safe and Happy Halloween to all!
