Pumpkins, Halloween and The Who-Is-Pebbles-Flintstone Conundrum

Bear with me for a moment, dearest reader(s), as I put the cart before the horse for a beat...

HOW DO GROWN PEOPLE (35+) NOT KNOW OF PEBBLES FLINTSTONE?!?! The youngest of the First Family of Bedrock?! I mean...

I digress, but only briefly.

Here is our Halloween wrap-up for 2016!

Pumpkin patch-ing while wearing:

-Our Who-Dey best!  It was game day, duhr.

With our devoted sidekick, Mickey...obviously.

OG picked out a cart and made sure Mickey had a seat...

Then was off to find the best pumpkin...

Winner!

She was very proud. :)

"Not now, Momma...I see pigs!"

Petting the donkey

Well, maybe not petting...but watching the donkey for sure.

That little white chicken was following OG around the whole coop - they were BFFs (Best Farm Friends)

It was a great day at the pumpkin patch!

Followed by....carving pumpkins!
OG (and the rest of us) were wearing:
-Our PJs

Decorating pumpkin #1

"Carving" pumpkin #2

Who gave this lady a sharp tool?! ;)

The final results!

Helping Dada carve his pumpkin (which never came to fruition) 

OG's finished pumpkins!

Then...back to my rant from before...HALLOWEEN! Wherein, OG dressed as:
-Pebbles FlintStone riding a Dinosaur
...
-Which seems totally obvious to me BUT GROWN FOLKS HAD NO CLUE!
-"Oh, is she a dragon?" No.
-"Oh, how cute...a watermelon?" No.
-"Is she a genie?"  ...Wearing a dinosaur? No.

Pebbles. Flintstone.

This character:

Bone in hair? Check. Top? Check? Riding a dinosaur? Should be a dead give-away!

Cousins and Friend Ella posing before the big event.

I seriously almost ate her. She looked so stinking CUTE! But seriously, am I crazy?  Does she not look like Pebbles?

Getting into the swing of it!

The Safety Squad/Boring Adult Chaperones :)

Ok, ok...she DID ditch the dino near the end so she could book it from house to house with the big kids...
but STILL LOOKS LIKE (weather appropriate) PEBBLES!

C'mon people! I'm what you might call slightly over 30, and I know Pebbles...no excuses! :)
