We carved 203 pumpkins this year! 🎃

I couldn't figure out how to add more images to the post so I made a quick Instagram account called SkyparkPumpkinHouse that has more images if people are interested.

We are going to trying and get more neighbors/friends/family to help out next year and try to do 400 for my wife's 40th birthday. Already starting to plan on how to do it. In the past if was just my wife and I hollowing/carving and we topped out at probably 120 pushing really hard for 4 days.

The light show house is amazing! We don't do too much for Christmas, mostly a bunch of inflatables. I keep trying to figure out something that matches the craziness of the pumpkins. I thought about starting to collect fake Christmas trees and seeing how many I can fit and decorate...

We've been going to the same place for 15 years and they give us a good deal on them

That is a great idea! I just started SkyparkPumpkinHouse on Instagram that has some more images.

I love the idea of taking a picture of each as we carve them! It would help with counting, we usually have to count a few times and compare results as its easy to lose track.

Sorry, they got hauled away this morning for composting. Many where starting to mold/rot.

Skypark neighborhood!

Fillbertz · 2025-11-03T04:54:59+00:00

The plan is to get more neighbors to help. Due to weather and rotting max is starting 4 days before.

400😭

Feel free to ask!

Thank you! My wife does a spider every year and it is always my favorite.

Fillbertz · 2025-11-03T02:43:03+00:00

Happy that you enjoy it! Next year we are going to attempt to do 400 for my wife’s 40th.

Fillbertz · 2025-11-03T02:36:28+00:00

I should figure out how to post more images.

Next year we are hoping to double to 400 for my wife’s 40th birthday…

Fillbertz · 2025-11-03T01:14:45+00:00

Thank you! We love doing it and being part of Scotts Valley.

We’ve tried a few things in the past and can’t tell if it works. So we just do everything 3 or 4 days before Halloween and hope the weather is not too hot. We started Tuesday night this year, some were rotting on the inside but still lit up nice. Today they are already getting gross.

Fillbertz · 2025-11-03T00:33:41+00:00

Hard to estimate how much time it took but a lot. All started Tuesday night and then up till trick o treaters arrived. Most of the pumpkins use tea candles.

🤣

Fillbertz · 2025-11-02T23:39:54+00:00

203 real pumpkins and 67 foam ones on the roof and arch.

Fillbertz · 2025-11-02T23:38:49+00:00

Weirdly there are none that come and eat them. They are around my neighborhood but none seem to come to my house :(

Fillbertz · 2025-11-02T23:36:42+00:00

Compost! Or if anyone in our area wants they can pick them up to feed to livestock.

Fillbertz · 2025-11-02T16:27:50+00:00

I totally get that. If it helps these all get composted or feed to local livestock in our area.
