Our First Halloween Pumpkin

Barrett and Elena went to the Pumpkin Patch yesterday. They went to get our first pumpkins to carve. Elena picked out one pumpkin for her and one for Landon. She picked out a GIANT pumpkin for her; one almost as big as her, and then she picks a teeny tiny one for Landon. She had so much fun carving her pumpkin last night. She had no problem putting her arms and head in the pumpkin to clean it out. After it was done, we took some pictures. We put it on the picnic table on the porch and we faced the pumpkin in towards the house. All night last night she would go to the window to check it out. We kept the lights off most of the night so she could really look at it. Her and her daddy did a good job on our first pumpkin. We ended up painting Landon's pumpkin since it was too small to carve. We painted it white last night and tonight we will paint a black face on it.
