Pumpkins!

We headed for Craven Farms on Sunday afternoon to gather pumpkins. It was a good time and a successful trip! We ended up with 2 orange pumpkins, a green one and 2 white ones. One white one has already been painted...orange. I think carving might take place one evening next week.
It was quite muddy from the monsoons that blew through the day before, but miraculously Alistair managed to keep his feet and stay mostly mud free!
We had a few pumpkin rotations before we found the right ones for the take. Good thing we had Sherpa Seth with us to port our pumpkins around!

One of the 2 ghost pumpkins Alistair chose. I believe this is the one he painted orange.

Family photo. Alistair DID NOT like the guy taking our picture. He wouldn't smile for the guy and in the second photo he took, Alistair wouldn't raise his head and is looking at the ground. Ah good memories for later! (: I hope this isn't a foreshadowing of getting his portraits done next month!
