Pictures from a friend's annual "Pumpkin Festival" party, involving pumpkin carving contests, a chili cook-off, and a dessert competition. Casey won 3rd place for his "Mad Muhammed's Mediterranean Chili" and we won honorable mention for the pumpkin we carved.They even have a website for it: http://www.campbellspumpkinfestival.com

Yes, they're serious hosts.
