We are getting down to the wire – 3 days till Halloween. If you haven’t made your Halloween pumpkin yet, let me help. Well, let me clarify that. I’m not really going to come over and ‘help’. I am going to make it easy for you to get through this though. The pumpkin we made this year took all of 5 minutes. All you need is the picture. You don’t even need instructions.
Feeling more ambitious? Then search this site for pumpkin or scarecrow. You’ll find a lot of ideas, as I posted a picture a day in September and October of 2010. Now, go and create!
When you get back, go on the internet to check out this weekend’s Sycamore (Illinois) Pumpkin Festival. This is the 50th anniversary, and I have high expectations. We go most every year to enjoy the display of decorated pumpkins on the courthouse lawn. Many of the pumpkin/scarecrow pictures in last year’s postings came from there. Sycamore will have a craft fair, parade, carnival, scary stories, crafts, and of course, music and food.
If you see someone dancing, take a closer look to see if it’s Mike and me. You can thank us for making your pumpkin carving so easy that you had time to go to the festival. Here is a picture of Mike so you can recognize us.
