Friday night we thought it'd be fun to carve pumpkins, in the spirit of the season. Turns out we were a little late for the pumpkin patch because when we got there a rope had been wrapped around the area, creating a barrier between us and our desired gourds. What do we do? In Ashley's words we "stole the pumpkins." In anyone else's terms, we stepped over a rope. At which point we each chose a pumpkin and in true thief style, each slipped a $10 bill into the owner's shed. Rebellious.
About an hour into carving our pumpkins I straightened up and realized that the way the pumpkins were being carved was an exact match of our personalities- sisters and significant others alike. Here's a rundown:
Ashley and Hunter- still poking holes in the pattern, each with their own pumpkin, and each expecting their pumpkins to be perfect.
Lisa and Matt- Lisa helped pick the pattern and then poured herself a glass of wine to sip on while she watched Matt carve it for her.
Me and Jason- I finished picking the pattern, poking the holes and carving the pumpkin in 30 minutes. Then I was on to turning Nutter Butters into white chocolate-covered ghosts. Jason never considered carving, he was eating the pumpkin seeds.
Just too perfect. Anyways, aside from Georgia getting an expected beating from Florida the next exciting event was HALLOWEEN! 
In true triplet style we dressed as the three blind mice. Some of the pictures make even me look twice. We dress alike to mess with people's minds. 
Jason and Matt dressed as the hoodrats that they are. What does Hunter go as? An orange dinosaur. Which isn't surprising. What else isn't surprising? His mother made the costume for him in a day. Someone's an only child. 
Last time my mom made one of us a costume was when Ashley was a shark. Which was then passed down so that I could be a shark in 5th grade. Shall we reminisce?
