PuPa 2012

So we finally made our annual trek to the Pumpkin Patch on Sunday. It was easier this time, with our youngest now being two - everybody could walk on their own! The kids loved it, and we loved getting it done (yes, we are party poopers when it comes to the pumpkin patch, but it's such a hard time of the year to squeeze it in between all the Halloween/harvest activities, ballet and skating rehearsals, and piano recitals). Because we won't be at home on Halloween due to church activities, we've decided not to carve our pumpkins (since it doesn't seem wise to leave lit pumpkins at home while we're not there LOL). I'm thinking of letting the kids paint them instead, but I'm not sure if I'm brave enough for that - maybe some stickers? I think I saw jack-o-lantern face stickers somewhere. And this is why I blog - every so often my rambling produces an idea...

You could try the kits that have pieces you poke into the pumpkin (ala Mr. Potato Head). My son's teacher has an Angry Bird one she used. I saw a few at the local Halloween Store.

Happy Birthday, Melissa! I hope you are having a good weekend.

I had no idea what "PuPa" stood for until I started reading - sounds disgusting! Your pictures are adorable, though.
