With Halloween being this Friday, things have been decidedly pumpkin-shaped this weekend. The kitchen has been full of sticky innards and we have an impressively large bowls of seeds waiting to be roasted, As usual, we geeked-out a little when it came to carving:
and Exile #4 added her own twist by arriving home from a party with a "zombie pumpkin", painted a lovely shade of green:
Costumes have been on our mind too. Old items have been repurposed and much sewing, sticking and painting has been going on. In the meantime, the adult Exiles have been nervously looking at our candy supply and wondering if it needs further bulking up. Our neighbors tipped us off that they were visited by over 100 kids last year and that we should prepare accordingly.
Meanwhile, in the continuing saga of The Exiles versus the leaves, a mighty effort was put in this afternoon but judging by the state of everyone this evening, the leaves might have won.
