A close up of one on his acorns.
We also carved our pumpkins. These are the biggest jack-o-lanterns we've grown and they gave us plenty of space to make great faces. But they were so thick that it was hard for the younger children to completely cut through the flesh. The pumpkins are (from left to right) Nathan's, Stephen's, Aaron's, and Deborah's.
Here's what they look like in the dark. Pretty cool. You can't quite tell in this picture, but Stephen's tiger has a bite taken out of his ear.
It was a perfect night for a bonfire and of course somemores. It was nearly 60 degrees. That is very unusual for our Octobers. But it make for a great night of bonfires and running games in the dark for the children.

happy belated Reformation day. What are Nathan's acorns made out of?
Fun pumpkins, too!
They are made with tissue paper and glue. We got the idea from a Family Fun magazine article.
bonfire? cool.
Yes, there is nothing like a bonfire on a crisp October night, with the stars overhead and the mysterious woods all around you. Perfect kid heaven.
