Pumpkin Carving

On Sunday night we headed over to Nick, Brianna and Amelia's to carve pumpkins. Papa Rick, Grandma Lori and Aunt Jessi also came. Brianna made us a great fall dinner of chili and cornbread (made me forget that the day was 80 degrees). I wish it felt more like fall around here. How is it 81 degrees at the end of October? I had great aspirations of pumpkin carvings this year, so I put my husband to work! Because this mama doesn't have the patience for that sorta stuff. And lets face it, he's just better at it. Amelia and Harlow weren't too interested in helping, or the process of carving... So the adults did all the work. But I guess that was to be expected with toddlers. Every one's pumpkins turned out great. Happy Halloween everyone!

I've noticed I have a tendency to strip by child down to her diaper for anything fun...

Yes, we break out power tools to carve our pumpkins.

Power tools + pumpkin carving = polka dot pumpkin!


Harlow has the best daddy, check out his total concentration while carving Hello Kitty into Harlow's pumpkin.
