Happy Howl-o-ween!

Every year, Michael and I have a Pumpkin Carving Contest. Visitors at our home are able to vote for their favorite pumpkin. Our first year, Michael surprised me and had a little trophy made for it. So he and I pass it back and forth as we each take our turns at winning! You still have a few hours to come out and vote!


Teenage Mutant Pumpkin Turtle and Surprisingly Scary (look very closely on the wall behind 'Boo')


Last year, Deacon was 'Flower' the skunk

I have never seen, nor, smelled a skunk so sweet!



This year I got to come up with not one, but two costumes! I decided on........


Deacon as a fireman and Finn as his little dalmation!
We LOVE these traditions and look forward to them every year!

    Yes, Sarah. Thanks for pointing that out. Jane made both of the costumes (except for Deacon's hat).

    Great work, Honey! The boys and I are so blessed to have you.

    Better luck next year on your pumpkin!

    Love,
    Michael (7th annual RFPCC champion)
