Fun with the Giant Pumpkin

A couple years ago we took some cute pictures of Cameron in a pumpkin (see them here), and we thought that would be something fun to do again. Since Cameron said that he wanted to fit in this year, we knew we would need to get a big pumpkin. We stopped at a farm stand near our house and found a bunch of huge pumpkins. We got one that was around 110 pounds!! It is huge and took both of us to lift into the car.

On Sunday we decided to take pictures in the pumpkin. We brought it inside and first we had to scoop it out. Leah wanted to investigate the giant orange thing. She thought it was really cool.

Mama had the honor of scooping out all the pumpkin guts.

Leah was very interested in the pumpkin guts. Cameron, not so much.

Leah also wanted to eat the pumpkin guts.

Time for the photo shoot! Leah is confused.... why am I inside the giant orange thing?

Hmm, this is interesting.

What a cutie! She was so good in the pumpkin.

Then it was Cam's turn. He really liked being in the pumpkin.

Laughing at Mama, who was being silly on the sidelines.

Then it was time for Cam and Leah in the pumpkin together! Cam thought it was fun, Leah was even more confused.

What cute kiddos!

Scaredy faces?

It was a very fun photo shoot and the kids were great. I don't know if we will be able to do this again next year, cause Cam might be too big... but lots of fun for this year!

What great shots - hopefully Leah won't have nightmares about being eaten by a giant pumpkin

So cute! Only you two would go buy a 110 lb pumpkin and carve it for a photo shoot. The pictures came out great!
