Halloween is Friday and all I have done so far is decorate the door. I forgot to buy the little plastic spiders, so I don’t think it has quite the effect I was going for.
Our neighbors made the fatal mistake of carving their pumpkins too early. This results in the “old man effect” displayed here. The pumpkin face effectively goes from scary to jolly. .
We are trying to get our pumpkins carved before Halloween is over, but it all depends on That Husband’s work schedule. We might end up carving while the trick-or-treaters come by. I plan on scaring them by reaching out the door with my pumpkin goo covered claws. I’m not revealing our plans, but I think we are going to be able to best what we came up with last year.
This is my pumpkin from last Halloween. Isn’t she beautiful? That Husband’s was just a golfer and it was kind of boring so I am not going to show it here. He came up with something much more exciting this year.

Jenna I LOVE this blog!
I have been so torn over WordPress for the last year or so. I want to switch over so badly because I have always liked WordPress so much better than Blogger. What do you think? Do you like it enough that you think it would be worth it for me to make a switch? I seriously just love your blog. Anyway, yay for married life! lol. It sounds like you have been a trooper…especially with being sick and all. I hope you are feeling better soon!

I just have to say that you have a very pretty door and I wish I had a red one, too.
I don’t think that we’ll have any pumpkins. I don’t even know if we’ll get any trick-or-treaters! But I’m sure that your pumpkins will be exciting!

Aw, carving pumpkins, I used to enjoy that so much when I was little! I can’t remember the last time I carved one! Can’t wait to see what you come up with this year!
