Pumpkin Massacre!

So you remember those cute little pumpkins that were in the wagon with Ryan. Well, I thought I would be festive and put them outside my house. I got a tall, big pumpkin for Greg, a fat, pregnant one for me, then 2 little ones for Ryan and the baby. I wake up one morning and look outside and the 2 little ones have been stolen. At first I didn't really know what to think. Do the neigborhood kids have nothing better to do than steal pumpkins? And the baby pumpkins at that! The next morning the other 2 pumpkins had huge gouges in them. I had no idea what to think about that... Then our friends Erich and Allie came over and were talking about our pumpkins and how the squirrels had gotten to them. Squirrels! Here is the damage to the daddy pumpkin. The mommy pumpkin didn't survive to be photographed...

Crazy huh? I have never seen anything like it! Needless to say I will not be as festive next year outside. I will leave my decorations inside to save them from the pumpkin eating squirrels!
