OK, so, Halloween is coming up and we wanna see what you’re doing with your pumpkins. This year, how about a botanical theme? (Not that this holiday display created by Tom and Jeannie Tremont, a few blocks from my house, isn’t a winner…ha!)

Whether you want to show off your kids’ carvings or some autumn containers adorned with gourds, we would love to see how you’re celebrating the season. Please send all photos (or videos!) to gpod@taunton.com.

    These are great, can't believe there aren't more comments and thumbs up!

    I've seen better pumpkin butts, but not on bikes! I also really like the mama and baby. There's something about pumpkins that makes everyone smile, even when they're not posing as people.
