Potato head pumpkins...

We borrowed this great idea from our neighbors, and I encourage you to copy it next year, too. For our small pumpkins this year we put Mr. Potato Head parts on 'em, and they actually turned out really cute.

And how cute is Gage here? This was "his" pumpkin. Don't be fooled into thinking that you can just stick the potato parts right into the pumpkins, though. You should first use a nail to establish the holes where you'll stick the parts. That worked better for us.
