Ripe too early

It seems as if our pumpkins got ripe too soon. It looks like they are ready now. Does anyone know how long pumpkins last? Should I pick them now? Should I leave them on the vine? I hope they last until Halloween.

You can pick it now and keep it cool (60-70 deg) or wait until the first frost kills the plant. If you leave it outside for too many frosts, the pumpkin will rot. It looks great!
