Pumpkin Craft






While working out at the YMCA yesterday, I watched Martha Stewart on TV. For some odd reason, her voice was just soothing enough to make me forget that my legs were burning... Martha was decorating pumpkins with gummy candy... Now, Martha I am not...but I figured "really just how difficult can it be?" I was right about the difficulty... It was not. At least it was not difficult to get the candy on the pumpkins... but to make them "cute" in the process... ahh..that's the difficult part. Ours turned out just kinda creepy looking. But in the spirit of Halloween, I'm gonna say that we "planned" them to look this way :) The important thing is though that Brayden and I had a great time... we laughed hard. Brayden was very concerned with the hair. He tediously applied all of the "hair" aka pull n peel twizzlers to the pumpkins. Bryce helped us and served as our taste taster... Someone had to guarantee that the candy was ok. Bryce gladly obliged.

That is an awesome idea...hope you don't mind, but I am stealing it! Love the hair, I think Brayden might have a future as a professional pumpkin decorator.
