A Little Halloween Spirit

I am feeling rather guilty right now because I didn't take out my Halloween decorations and Tristan would have actually enjoyed them this year (I think). I don't think it was just me being lazy, I really just feel like the month went by so fast that every time I thought about getting them out something else came up and boom, all the sudden, here it is 4 days until Halloween!

We did do the pumpkin painting (see post) and Victor and I each carved a pumpkin for the front porch, so we did put forth the the effort to get in the mood. But, I guess the Halloween spirit just wasn't meant to be around here because within 2-3 days after we carved our pumpkins they collapsed!!! First, we woke up one morning to find Victor's pumpkin had fallen off the turned upside-down pot we set it on and had completely caved in on the back side. I thought to myself, "at least mine is still alive", then the next day I went outside to find mine sunken in:(

I was really sad because our pumpkins looked so cute and Tristan seemed to like them...at least I snapped a few pics before they "died"!

What are you smiling about pumpkin?

Not too sure about that scary pumpkin
