pumpkin, PUMPKINS

Early this month Tessa and Austin got to go to pumpkin land and each received a pumpkin. Then a friend of mine called up and said she grew a lot pumpkins and for us to come and get some. Then the kids came home with free vouchers for more pumpkins. So we went to Macey's this morning and each got a pumpkin. Alex chose one that was almost 50 lbs. Austin chose one that was just a little bit smaller, then Tessa chose one that was just right for her. So by the time we were done we had a variety of big, bigger, and biggest pumpkins.

Dad helping us get the pumpkins ready.
All the kids getting ready to gut them. Austin was so funny he didn't want to get his hands dirty. So dad told him to pretend that he was spider man and he was digging in spider webs. Austin said, thanks dad, that makes it even worse. But he still did it. Ben on the other hand is extremely anal and spent most of the time making sure that each pumpkin was completely cleaned out. Thanks Dad. We have two that Austin and Tessa designed them selves, a cat, a witch, the batman symbol, an alien, a traditional pumpkin face , a pumpkin face with fangs, and a werewolf. I think that is it. We have a total of 9. Crazy, but a lot of fun.

We also went on the Haunted River in Provo. Not something that I would recommend, for the price. But the kids had some fun and got free candy. I think tonight we will go to the drive by haunted house. It is pretty cool, you sit in your car and listen to a radio station that is playing the Haunted Mansion from Disney and lights will light up according to the song.
