Nothing Like Waiting Until the Last Second...


Daddy forgot to tell Mommy about the Pumpkin Decorating Contest at Cub Scouts...She received the email reminder the night before, so the next day, after school, we got to work! At 4:45 PM, less than two hours from the start of Cub Scouts, we started on Alex's pumpkin. Alex chose a spider design and helped clean out the gunk, as well as carve it. I suggested adding some spiders to the pumpkin (Lucky for Alex, we had a plethora of spider rings laying around!), which he wasn't sure of at first. But when I remembered the extra fake spider webbing we had in the basement, he was all on board!! Alex even added some fake cockroaches for added effect. All in all, he didn't do too bad! He won second prize out of about 50 entries at his school's Pack Meeting! Way to go, Alex!
