This post is specifically dedicated to one certain friend who claims to "love" Halloween but had the audacity to diss my pumpkin walk! So let me tell you why I love our pumpkin walk... I love the smells and the sounds; fall leaves, freshly carved pumpkins, bon-fire smoke, exclamations of small children at seeing a pumpkin made into a smurf or into Micheal Jackson or whatever. I love the free Peppridge Farm cookies and Schriebers Cheese sticks that are handed out. I love the sweet old-lady witch that sits for hours and hours so that kids can get their picture taken. I love the character board cut-outs that people, kids and adults alike, can stick their heads in and snap a picture. I love the scouts trying to light the bon-fires to provide warmth for everyone. I love the creativity that goes into making a pumpkin display and that most of them even have music that my little kids dance to. I love the feeling of a community come together to celebrate a stupid holiday and the simple "tradition" of it all. So...if you want to be amazed and witness a "real" pumpkin walk head up to Logan. It's where the fun is.

Logan does have the best pumpkin walk I've ever seen. This comes from a girl raised in West Point where the Kiddie Kollege pumpkin walk always was a tradition, so that's saying something.
Thanks for the pics. I miss that.
What a cool walk! I wanna come play!
Truce already! :) I'm glad you had so much fun! Happy Mole Day!
Very cute pictures. Looks like lots of fun. Who does all the work to get it ready. I love all the different backdrops.
Oh, I didn't realize the pumpkin carvings were so elaborate and creative. People have been telling me about the pumpkin walk but I couldn't figure out what was so cool about a bunch of carved pumpkins... now I get it ;) Maybe we will have to try to go soon.
The pumpkin walk does look fun. Such cute photos! I would love it. I do love Halloween... minus all the gory stuff.
That is an AwEsoMe pumpkin walk!!! Your girls are so cute!
