Sadie and her pumpkin


I love this one!

We have quite an assortment of pumpkins at our house right now. Inside the house, we have two tiny pumpkins that Sadie has drawn faces on with a sharpie, a slightly larger pumpkin that I drew a face on and a medium size pumpkin that Sadie decorated with felt, googly eyes, pom poms and gems at the Etna Library Spooky Halloween Craft Party.

Outside the house, we have four pumpkins waiting to be carved. A very big one for Dan, a big one for me, a big one for Sadie and a smaller one for Helena.

On the deck we also have a gourd which Sadie drew a face on with marker. It's getting kind of rotten, so I made Sadie take it out of the house. She can't bear to throw it away yet.

After Halloween, we are going to put the pumpkins in the woods and watch them decompose. Sadie saw this on the PBS Kids show "Sid The Science Kid" and is eager to try it at home.

This is a great seasonal picture. Good luck carving all those pumpkins. I can't wait to see them.
