It poured in Boise on Monday (and when I say poured, I mean it lightly rained for most of the day -- I've been in rain storms in the south... totally different). But I loved every single minute of it! I decided to take Morgan to the house down the street that has a "pumpkins for sale" sign so we could buy some seasonal decor. We got 7 pumpkins for $10! That kills the grocery store price! Plus, Morgan got to walk around in the rain and mud and pick her own pumpkin. I wish I would have savored that mommy moment more at the time.
Yesterday Morgan and I got to put them on the porch as decoration. The little one in this picture is M's pumpkin.
She was so excited when I put these together. She loves snowmen! All I did was cut the tops of of the bottom two and place one on top of the other. These are just balancing right now. I'm sure I could stick a rod through them for sturdiness, but I don't want them to go bad soon so I think I'll just chance it. The leaves are three garlands that I got at the craft store 2 years ago.
Linking up at the great Linky parties found at the bottom of the blog. They are where I find most of my inspiration! Check them out!

I was reading this post with my son in my lap and now he wants to make a pumpkin snowman, but he is insisting ours had a nose, eyes, and a mouth! Love the display!

I'm hoping to do something like this too - love yours! I was kind of thinking of using hot glue to stick them together but was worried that would make the pumpkins go bad too. I'll just have to see! :)
