Girl's Best Friend: Her Pumpkin

Thursday, October 9, 2008


Move over, Fido! (Or on our case, move over Panda!) Our girl's best friend is not her dog, nor diamonds, nor anything else. Bethany has given her heart to her pumpkin! That's right. Yesterday, while visiting teaching . . .well, let me back up. I visit teach very crafty women (crafty as in good at creating beautiful crafts, not crafty as in sneaky, lest I be misunderstood) who all have these wonderful fall displays with pumpkins outside their homes. Bethany became fascinated with pumpkins during our visits. So, during our run to Wal-Mart later, we got her a pumpkin to hold while I shopped (actually a good diversionary technique!) and she LOVED it. She pet it, all the while saying "Soft, soft." (Meaning the petting was soft, not the pumpkin, I did not buy her a mushy pumpkin, I do have certain standards when it comes to the gourds in my life. But I digress.) Anyway, she kept stroking it, and kissing it over and over, and calling it her "Puh-bo." We can't wait to take her to the North Logan Pumpkin Walk, she'll go crazy! We took this picture right when we got home to try and capture the joy of the moment.

I like that picture a lot! Bethany is so cute! I love all of the little things she does when we come over (like when you ask her "what does an elephant say?" she makes a cute noise)! Hopefully I can see all of you soon!!

Love, Nicole
