Harvest time!

So our two huge pumpkin vines started many different little pumpkins, all of which wilted away except this one! We went to check on it and found some animal had been gnawing away at it! (Maybe our neighborhood foxes?) So, we figured it was harvest time. The boys and I enjoyed cutting it off the vine and checking out our first pumpkin masterpiece. It was fun to show the kids the process from seed to pumpkin and hoping to carve it later this week. The kids and I enjoyed our little gardening project!

We also did some initial decorating for fall and Halloween. The kids loved the new cling-on bats and bugs and had fun sticking them all over. I made these little BOO letters! Of course, what's Halloween without spider webs? With all this decorating, I'm thinking it's time to plan a Halloween party!
