Boo!

It was quite a Happy Halloween. Technically, it was my second Halloween, but this was the first time I am able to participate at full force. After much ballyhoo and debate, I went as a duck. My second favorite choice was a pumpkin. I waged a successful protest against my parents choice as a rabbit. I visited about 4-5 neighbors and got some Teddy Grahms from my buddy, Ed. Overall, it was a goodtime.















The Halloween festivities actually started a couple of weeks ago when I chose my pumpkin.



I spent the day before Halloween helping mom and dad carve the pumpkin. As you can see, I was very instrumental in the cleaning and sculpting of the pumpkin.






After cleaning the pumpkin, I helped mom carve the pumpkin and shape the mouth.


After all my hard work, I decided we were done, put the top on the pumpkin and put the tools away.



And my of my piece de resistance...

Spencer, next year you may want to try putting ears on the pumpkin like your Great Grandpa John. Cut an acorn squash in half lenght- wise, make a few holes in the pumpkin and squash so light shows through. Nail the squash to the pumpkin and he has scary ears, almost like Spock. GAunt Karla
