Pumpkin party!

We decided to paint our pumpkins this year instead of carving them.  Because let's face it, who does all the work when they are this young?  That's right, MOM!  I end up cleaning out and carving all the faces after the kids tell me what they want...So why not let them have all the fun instead?

Kendall got right to work on her masterpiece

Dad is helping Riley draw a face on his pumpkin

Just an abstract little pumpkin for her!

We even broke out some markers - like how she's doing all her decorating while holding on to that lollipop?  

Riley was so proud of his work!

I think this is going to become a new tradition in our house.  We can paint them early and not worry about rot like when you carve your pumpkins.
