Halloween

We stopped at Alex Pumpkin Patch for pumpkins and walked out with arms full of pumpkins and squashes. The owner generously threw in several unusual varieties, and the one that has to be opened with a chainsaw piqued the boys' attention.

Since Halloween fell on a Tuesday, the College Bible study group that meets at our home, decided to join us for carving, food, and fun. For several students, this was their first pumpkin carving.

We opened up the garage and carved the pumpkins on the garage floor. As the evening progressed, it got chilly and Bob and the boys set up our fire pit. Many of our neighbors stopped by for trick or treating, warming up by the fire, and visiting. It was a fun evening and our driveway had an impressive line of lovely pumpkins to show for the festivities.
