Jack-O-Lantern

Tonight we carved pumpkins! I know, here in America we are obsessed with pumpkins! Pumpkin patches, pumpkin carving, pumpkin pie...I'm a sucker for it all! I love fun traditions that come around each year! Halloween seems to kick them all off! I read that Halloween is the number 2 money maker just behind Christmas for sales!
Anyway, we like to carve pumpkins and listen to scary music! Afterwards I love to roast the pumpkin seeds! Yum!
I hope everyone has an awesome, fun and safe Halloween! And to all of you on the East coast my prayers go out to you and your families if you were effected by the storm and floods! I know there has been devastating loss and damage! I hope some Holiday spirit finds you and gives you a little uplift in the middle of this mess!
Great photograph of these pumpkins, happy halloween

These look amazing...I wish we had carved pumpkins this year.
October 31st, 2012  
Really nice Jerry!

These look really cool. Halloween is not really celebrated in South Africa, so pumpkin carving is not something we see very much. I have noticed this year though that large pumpkins are more readily available. Roasted seeds sound wonderful as well!

Happy Halloween! Your pumpkins are awesome! Halloween is not a big holiday here in Germany, but we do make a big deal out of it at the American Military Base where i teach. It's going to be a great day!

Cool!! This year I saw Halloween pumpkins in our local supermarket. Certainly seems that each year it gets a little bigger here in Aussie land... we put some decorations up out the front for a bit of fun :) Next year, I might even get pumpkins!
October 31st, 2012  
Nice. Not very popular here in Shanghai so its nice to see yours!
October 31st, 2012  
Nasty looking grins!!!! have promised to buy Grace one this morning so we can carve it this afternoon!

Beautiful exposure. Halloween isn't so big in the UK. We used to carve when the kids were little but to be honest it's not my favourite time. I think if the kids went trick or treating in daylight hours I'd feel a bit better about. I prefer the UK's Guy Fawkes night on the 5th November :)
October 31st, 2012  
Wonderfully carved pumpkins. They look really great. It's not quite such a big celebration here but still lots going on.
October 31st, 2012  
ADORABLE PUNKINS! Made for a movie!
October 31st, 2012  
Our kids used to love this time of the year, and now our Grandaughter enjoys her time too.
