Seeing that Halloween is tomorrow Travis and I decided to carve pumpkins tomorrow for the first time. We didn't think that buying pumpkins the day before should be a problem but unfortunately we ran into a few bumps in the road. There weren't any pumpkins on base so we ventured off post to the new Market Basket.
Our spirits were high walking into the store but little did we know that they had just sold out. Luckily the employee told us of a pumpkin patch on our way home. It is called Anderson Farm and it has hay rides and a petting zoo and believe it or not LOTS of pumpkins still. Travis will be carving his pumpkin for Henry and Charlie asked me if I would carve his. Watson is allergic to carving he says since it might mess up his lovely black coat. Watson always gets very anxious around Halloween I think it is due to his all black coat. Travis and I try not to play into his tricky tactics and treat him just like our other boys.
Travis and I had a great time picking out what we thought the boys would like. We also spent a little time just playing around.
We were still in high spirits after the devastating news of NO pumpkins! 
Charlie will love his pumpkin
Trav hunted for the perfect pumpkin that Henry would love
Travis loves pumpkins!

I tried posting a comment, but forgot to do the word verification thing and it got deleted. will try again.
ReplyDeleteI was saying that you should take a picture of the final version. I have seen so many pictures of pumpkins people have carved and they look soooo good. I don't know how people do that. When I carve a pumpkin it always looks so tortued. Sadly, Jeff and I haven't gotten a pumpkin yet to carve.
Looks like lots of fun, but missing coats. We have to wear coats and snuggle to keep warm here for Halloween, brrrr
ReplyDeleteBy the way, Watson should stop being so prissy and carve a pumpkin:) (Have I told you guys recently that you are weird)
ReplyDeleteJeff wanted to add that he likes the pumpkins you picked out for Henry and Charlie. Also, that it is cool that you had a real pumpkin patch adventure instead of just getting one at the grocery store.
