Carving Pumpkins & Haunted Houses

I love waiting until a few days before Halloween to get a good deal on pumpkins instead of buying one medium pumpkin for 5 bucks!

Tyler and I spent Saturday evening carving our pumpkins and roasted our pumpkin seeds with brown sugar & cinnamon (yummy recipe here).

We went to Fear Farm with my parents and spent $18 bucks for 4 haunted houses which I find a good deal since I know there are some haunted houses that are $15 for 1 haunted house!

The first haunted house I was dragging on my Dad for dear life since it was pitch black for a while. I almost peed my pants when there was a “bad guy” riding on a horse and bolted at me. No joke! I know they’re not allowed to touch us but they still did an amazing job at getting in our face but not crossing the line by touching us.

Have a wonderful Halloween week! Finally Halloween is not in the middle of the week this year.

Wow those pumpkins look awesome! I wish I could do more pumpkin patch stuff in fall. Living in the city isn’t very likely for that happening.

OMG – super cute! I love the one looking out the blinds! LOL I just realized he could be looking IN the blinds – that’s even creepier!

VERY impressed with the pumpkins. I was never able to carve them and have the end result actually LOOK like something – other than a poorly carved pumpkin :o)

The haunted house reminds me of a haunted corn maze I used to go to growing up… so scary, but SO fun!
ps: I MUST try that pumpkin seed recipe!! yummmmm
