Halloween preparations are underway. I procured some templates from zombiepumpkins.com, and over the weekend the Little menfolk created some pumpkins that are, in a word, phat. Check them out!

That was a few hours' carving, with the cheap tools. Since we left all of these at Dad's house, we will certainly be carving our own for the house. This will be our first Halloween spent at home in 5 years - usually we are on a cruise or trip somewhere. We will be carving some interesting pumpkins this year, for certain, and I'm sure BJ will too.
