PUMPKIN TIME

I am usually more on top of things but again October has been an insane month for our family. We did not have chance to take the kids for FHE to pick out their pumpkins like we have done in the past so Daddy surprised the kids with two pumpkins to carve tonight. What a great time. Little H was so fascinated with the pumpkins. She tried so hard to get that pretty head of hers inside a pumpkin. I have such great memories of my childhood carving pumpkins with my family and the instant my hands get a hold of the gooey, slimy pumpkin innards they all come rushing back. We love to roast the pumpkin seeds and eat them while we watch Daddy carve away at the little orange ball. Daddy always gets the honors, we like all digits attached to our kids when we are done. My kids got to stay up extra late tonight and they LOOVE that because I am such a stickler for bedtime. Staying up late is such a special treat and they know it. That is going to end up being three nights in a row of kids up late. Oh boy I am in for it...kids all hyped up on sugar and tired.


Daddy did a great job!! Sissy and Wild Thing were actually afraid of the lit finished product. Layne is carving the second pumpkin as we speak. I made the poor tired kids hit the hay after the first one. Tomorrow is going to be a long day as it is.
HAPPY HAUNTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
