Pumpkin Particulars

What a fun time of year Halloween is!!! Tonight we turned pumpkins in to Jack-O-Lanterns, and had a great time doing it. Justin's girlfriend, Bailey, also came over, and we carved one for her, too. To the right here, the whole family (except for me; I'm behind that bright flash you see reflected in the glass) is on the porch by our three Jack-O-Lanterns: Michelle, Mark, Brianna, Justin, Bailey, Steven, Andrew and Christopher.

Steven designed a pumpkin that Andrew and Mark had a good time turning in to a "puking pumpkin." Justin and Bailey, music majors that they are, gave their pumpkin a note for a nose. Christopher carved a pumpkin with his favorite character (of his own creation) on it.

Last year, it was FREEZING on Halloween. Though we started the season with a record-early snowfall on October 10th, since then it has warmed considerably. This Halloween promises to be pretty nice, with lows not going any lower than the low-to-mid 30s. Saweet!!! Enjoy additional photos below, and on Facebook or on Flickr (many more photos to be posted as the week progresses, I'm sure).
