TTC After a Loss

I think I grossed out some kids...

So DH and I were trying to get in the spirit of trick or treating a few days ago, so we carved pumpkins.  I am HORRIBLE at this, so it was kind of a big deal.  Kids started showing up to my door several hours ago to TOT, and a few had odd looks on their faces.  I just realized (as it is almost time for kids to be finished) that our pumpkins are TOTALLY MOLDY!  Ew.  I am embarrassed.

  • My pumpkin was moldy and I noticed it the other while raking leaves.  I had to throw mine out early. Boo!
  • Adds to the decor, right? :)

    If you cover your pumpkin in vaseline, it'll last a lot longer... I don't know if you can light them after they're coated though...

    Now that is an interesting trick!
