Punkin Pickin’

October 18, 2011

We finally went to pick this year’s Mr. Jack O’ Lantern. Although, finding the perfect one is challenging when a little munchkin wants every one he sees! Heck! We should’ve named the kid after Peter Peter, the infamous punkin eater.

After finely inspecting each and every one, we decided on two: the very first one Bubs spotted and a huge-honker fit for the fireplace hearth.

The other part? Yeah that whole carving and then, oh surprise here’s a bunch of gooey nastiness, isn’t really my thing. So until the kidlet is old enough to know better, I’ve chosen to adorn them in masks fit for a good ole’ spook!

I’ll show you them in their full glory tomorrow!

    Great pictures! I have to ask where you got your boots. I’ve been looking everywhere and can’t find a pair I like but yours are so cute!

    • missy October 19, 2011 at 12:52 pm

      They are by Me Too. I actually got them at Marshalls. What’s awesome is they can fold down too so they don’t go above the knee (different styles for different looks). Here’s a pair that are similar by frye http://bit.ly/qHMa7E
