I Forgot the Pumpkins

Posted by Jenn Greenleaf Oct 27, 2009

Every year, we have at least one or two pumpkins for each of our children lining the edges of our deck’s stairway. They’re usually carved, but we’ve never liked how quickly they rot no matter how many preventative measures we take to avoid this from happening fast. So, this year, I thought I would teach my children some mixed-media techniques when decorating our pumpkins this year rather than carving them.

The problem?

It’s Tuesday, and Halloween is Saturday…and I keep forgetting to buy the pumpkins! Usually, I buy them too early…this year, it’s completely out of my mind each time I enter the store – even when I have it on my list! What’s wrong with me?! So, today, when I pick up the laundry detergent I keep forgetting to buy, I’m going to grab three pumpkins!!!!

Are you decorating and/or carving pumpkins this year?
