Here are some photos of our Saturday excursion to a north GA pumpkin farm. I was so excited, standing there in the middle of that huge bunch of pumpkins, that I just about needed a paper bag in order to breathe. If I'd been a dog I would have been thumping my tail wildly and rolling around on the ground :)
There were heirloom pumpkins, regular carving pumpkins, sugar pumpkins, huge, gigantor pumpkins... The weather was incredible: sunny, but cool enough to need the sweater that I'd brought *sigh* It was so much fun. I was very good and only bought two pumpkins! Go ahead: congratulate me on my restraint. (Never mind the fact that I already had 13 and that I will be going back to Whole Foods to buy more for the big carving fest this Friday night...)
Here's a (horrible, awful, blurry) picture of Tallulah's decorated porch:
Some things that you can't see include a cool, motion-activated skeleton hanging from the porch light (thanks, Mom!), the "Welcome" crosspiece that forms the top of the archway (thanks, Mom!), a skeleton "Beware" sign in the right windowbox (thanks, Mom!), a "trick or treat" flag, some owl candleholders.... (My mom is my Halloween enabler, can you tell??) Hmmm, there's quite a lot that you can't see... Sorry! I do love the glow of the lights, though :) I have these darling glass pumpkin shaped candle holders that I suspended by orange ribbons from the bannisters (they're the large orange glows on the sides). I think it looks pretty cool.
More pictures of all the decorative goings-on later! Oh, and if any of you are serious Halloween fans, add to my joy and leave me a comment ;)

All those pumpkins! Your porch looks brilliant.
Aww, thanks :) It's a terrible picture, though!
Hopefully I'll get some good ones of the final setup for the party.
Thanks for stopping by,

wow! look at those pumpkins! And the decor is lovely.
I am the only person in our neighborhood here in England with a lit pumpkin. I am sure everyone thinks I am witch ;)
