Pumkin Pity Party
Adding a chapter to the great library which I shall later entitle "Life Lessons Learned: memoirs of stupidity from Ashley Mills," I will be including the following dated from this week:

P.S. I'm sorry for your loss. Rest in pieces (huh huh), Bad Jack.
Now you can call him "Harelip Harry" or something....
poor pumpkin! at least you carved one. we kept saying we would...yet tomorrow is halloween! whoops.
i still remember the time one of my old roomies carved a pumpkin and left it out for almost a month. can we say gross/mush/liquidity? yuck.
We learned that lesson the hard way too. Avery took the top off, which now looks like it has part of Santa's beard attached to the bottom, and screached!
LOL, I wasn't thinking that it looked so bad (shows you how good I am at carving pumpkins) until I looked at the original art work.. Oh well, Halloween is about scary right?
That is an awesome book title.
Ours had black spots after two days! We left him in Nashville. I'm not going to carve the little pumpkins we got at the pumpkin patch and hope that they last on our porch through Thanksgiving.
