Pumpkin time again....

So, today we had our annual pumpkin carve.... We look forward to it each year. If you are wondering, it was school spirit day today so the kids were to wear orange and black. We painted the kids faces, and by the time we took these, they are pretty smudged up!!

I took the kids to the grocery store to choose thier pumpkins. Gabe and Emma were in full costume. I got a lot of amused looks, but I'm pretty proud of them. Hey, they dress up all through the year and I let them wear the dress up clothes out. It's only wierd right now cause people are wondering if I got mixed up or not.....

Here is everyone (but me) getting ready to carve....


Seth tests out Gabe's pumpkin.... nope he's too big!!


Avery decided to do more decorating and less carving this year....


Pretty cute, eh?


I don't know which I like more, the pumpkin or the witch..... Isn't she the cutest thing ever?


Gabe and his huge pumpkin. It is so big, it actually has three faces!!!


Well, that's it, that's all!! Tomorrow we shop for shoe boxes!!

Goodnight, all!!

The pumpkin carriage is just wonderful! I love it! The kids are adorable (as usual). Tell them I said to have a great Halloween.

Wow! Where did you find the fabulous carving ideas? See, I'm not talented, so I need a template to go from. You guys probably thought these ideas up yourself! Everyone looks so great, Claire is dressing up as a chicken for Halloween, what about your crew? I will try and get a picture of her and send it out.
