Trent's Pumpkin

Here are a few pictures of Trent and I preparing his pumpkin for the school's 3rd Annual Pumpkin Decorating Contest. Tomorrow is the last day to submit pumpkins, so of course you can guess which family was at Michael's at 7pm this evening buying supplies. Trent figured out how to make this musical note pumpkin while we were driving home from school this afternoon...but I would like to point out that the past 2 years we have waited until the night before the final submission day and for the past 2 years Trent has won a category. In kindergarten, he did the fire man pumpkin that won 2nd place OVERALL in the entire school regardless of grade (he beat out 1st though 5th graders for that one) and last year in 1st grade his Batman pumpkin won for the Cutest Pumpkin in the 1st-2nd grade division. I personally believe that waiting until the last minute and then freeking out because we don't have any ideas, followed by running out the craft store an hour before bed and then piecing something together 5 minutes before bedtime seems to work in our favor. We will have to see if my theory holds up this year.
