Pumpkin Hunting

Jude and Gramma Annie's creation. 
They tried as hard as they could to get every colour of glitter on their pumpkin!

Most people think of eating turkey as their Thanksgiving tradition. For Jude and I, it has become about hunting for pumpkins in Taber with Papa Martin and Gramma Annie.

Luckily, it had stopped raining on Saturday so we were able to get out into the pumpkin patch. Jude is getting the star treatment with a ride in the wagon from Papa.

This one, Papa?

They did a good job of finding the perfect pumpkins :)

Now it was over to Gramma to help in the decorating department.

Just a little more glitter!!!!

From decorating real pumpkins to sugar cookie pumpkins. 
(It was hard to see the cookies from the tomatoes on the tablecloth.)

YUM!

Thanks for a great weekend of fun!

Bailey likes the look of the cookies...we'll have to try and give Sugar Cookies a try here. Worst thing though is you can't eat the dough...I learned that the hard way.

Good to see that pumpkin collecting was a hit!

Love your pictures! Your cookies remind me of the ones my mom used to make us when we were kids. Same cookie cutter! I miss those!
