Pumpkins

 Holidays are so much more fun when you have kids.  

Especially when your kids are my kids' ages.

My kids have been so excited about pumpkins and Halloween this year.

The little green pumpkins the kids are holding in their laps,

Gilbert grew in his garden just for the kids.

I guess they didn't orange up in time for Halloween.

 Picking out the pumpkins was something the kids have been looking forward to.

Every time we pass the pumpkins at the store,

the kids wanted to take one home.

Once we actually cut into the pumpkins,

the kids weren't so keen on touching the slime!

 So Gilbert let the kids draw the faces they desired,

and Gilbert did the actual digging and cutting out.

The kids just watched and made funny commentary.

So now the kids are excited for the actual trick-or-treating event.

I am sure they will be on sugar over load for weeks!
