That is right! It still may be two months away, but we are ready to kick off Halloween. It seems like most people really love Christmas.....I do love Christmas, but my absolute favorite is Halloween. We really have fun with this holiday.....yes it is a holiday! My Uncle Steve, who lives in Huntington Beach, grows pumpkins, and invites us down every year to get a bunch of them. Some of these pumpkins are huge....over a hundred pounds. Every kid gets to pick his own, and then some. We are so lucky! The kids have a blast and Uncle Steve aka Uncle Scary is so much fun with them. George and Uncle Scary both have a passion for Halloween, and Uncle Scary got George started on his mask collection. Before we head to the pumpkins, we swim and hang out. Here is James getting attacked by Uncle Scary...or the "crocodile"
Here he is checking out the damage to his toe...the crocodile bites toes....especially the big ones!
George and Uncle Scary....two of a kind...
How many guys does it take to carry a pumpkin?.....
LOTS!!!
It was a fun time, and the kids are already asking when we get to do it again!
I had to throw in this one picture of KC......I went to change and get ready for the gym....this is how I found him, and this is how we left the house..
He is a MONSTER!!!

I Love the pumpkins!! Ryan and I and family are heading to Cali in October for a little Disneyland and a Draeger family fix. We HAVE to get together. Maybe Steve will still have some pumpkins.
That is so cool to have a pumpkin hook up! Halloween is the favorite holiday at our house. We went to the Halloween store this past Saturday just to get excited. So I now what you mean about Christmas is great... but Halloween is so much fun. Looks like you guys had a great time.
