"Pumpkin" Painting

We can't really have pumpkins down here in Key West due to the heat. The pumpkins rot before you really get a chance to carve them. In an effort to be more festive I came up with the idea of creating our own pumpkins out of fallen coconuts. I spray painted pumpkins orange and painted faces on them. I let Grace paint her own "pumpkin" so we could display it. She had a great time painting the pumpkin, her legs, her hands and the concrete. Brandon even came out and helped Grace paint on her pumpkin. She loved having her daddy help her. Even though it was messy, she had fun and she washes easily.
