On the fifth day of Halloween

On the fifth day of Halloween, the Great Pumpkin gave to me:
 A few more Halloween trees! This one is new and so is the BIG kitty it's sitting in;
He has a hole in his head for candy I guess? It screamed put a tree in me to me;
And my handmade ornament tree from the old Halloween swaps and crafts with the kids.  The skirt on this was a happy accident this year - I bought a single Halloween bunting at a yard sale and it was perfect there!
Witchy poo here is new to me this year too.

On the tenth day of Halloween

On the tenth day of Halloween, the Great Pumpkin gave to me:

 One freshly minted 14 (!!) year old.
 Who does everything teenagers are infamous for (and then some),
 Who is now taller than me,
 And who is rapidly gaining on his father too!

Hapde Burfday Jack!

It also gave me:
 THREE parties in one weekend! One at kindergarten, one Halloween themed party at our house with Halloween food (clementine faces courtesy of grant, who thoroughly enjoyed giving them lots of different faces);

 and one birthday party sleepover too.
 Plus! A hot air balloon on the way to the flea, and!
some flea market loot!

Hopefully I can manage to pull off the great pumpkin series this year, but it's looking dodgy at best.

Pumpkin Patchin'

 It was FREEZING cold and the kids were pretty much complaining nonstop this year.  Grant, however, is a photo superstar.

















You can see the other two are not so great in the cooperation department. LOL

Oh well, until next year pumpkin patch!
