This is Fisher and his prized pumpkin.In the spring he asked my greenthumb grandma if she would order some pumpkin seeds guaranteed to grow 100 pound pumpkins. He asked his dad if he could have a little space in their garden to grow his pumpkin. The result was this 75 pound pumpkin! (and two others). He is so proud of his big baby and I am so proud of my pumpkin head!
For Family Home Evening we carved the pumpkin. Curly thought it was great, but couldn't figure out why her little knife wasn't cutting as well as Fisher's keyhole saw. Lou also thought it was great when her parents stripped her down and put her inside the pumpkin, as you can see from the video. Fisher was very creative in his design of the "telescoping" nose.
On Halloween Curly was a sheep or a "baa - sheep" as she calls it. It took some major bribery to get her to wear half of her costume. Lou was a cute duck. Of course I had to dress up as Old MacDonald. We went to our
community "trunk-or-treat". Curly was in heaven - so much candy so little time! Even after I took her goodie sack away she kept finding candy. She has got a mouthful in all of the pictures I took!

Oooooh! How cute! I miss you guys so much. I hope we get to see you some in August when we go visit Rexburg. That would be great. We'll be coming from Texas, so maybe we'll just stop in SLC and see you. :) So good to hear you're doing well. Keep us posted. ;)
