Carving Pumpkins

Our second annual pumpkin carving with Summer and the kids. We are going to make this a Halloween tradition. Our kids picking out their designs and getting ready to dig in.

The mess begins.

Sora transferring her design. Olivia already starting to carve.

Hayden half way through and Shasta just beginning.

Our kids are so much fun! Their carved pumpkins.

Olivia's to the left. Sora's in the middle. yeah, we aren't really sure what she carved. It started out as a mummy, then turned to a moon, then well this big hole. She said she was thinking outside the box (or should I say pumpkin). Nonetheless, it's her imagination and I love it when they are creative.

Hayden's to the left and Shasta's to the right. Both have some pretty freaky looking eyeballs in them.

Mine to the left and Summer's to the right.

I know, I'm sorry. There are tons of pictures and I just couldn't decide which ones to post and which not to. So here we are holding our pumpkins.



Okay, so funny story I have to post because it made me pee my pants. The kids were outside playing vampires and were on the trampoline. So Summer said we should scare the kids. We tried to find our Jason mask, well we couldn't so she decided to put pantyhose on her head. We were in my room getting ready when we heard the kids come in the house towards my room. So Summer started to run into the closet to hide from them so they couldn't see the hose on her face. But funny thing is she couldn't really see and ran into the wall. I couldn't stop laughing. It was hilarious! Definitely the highlight of my night. Thanks Summer for the good times!

Caramel Apples

So we decided to make caramel apples this year. Below are the kids being silly.
Olivia, Shasta, Hayden & Sora.

Summer preparing the caramel. Ummmm!



We had peanut butter chips, heath chips, & oreo cookie crumbs to dip the caramel apples in. So much sugar but so good.

The finished product and oh some yummy!

Artist for a Day!

So I took the girls to Artist for a Day. This is a really cool place where you can pick out a ceramic to paint, they fire it for you, then you pick it up a week later. We've been here several times and have a great time each time we go. Problem is the girls always end up waiting for me because it takes me forever to paint. Sorry girls! I'm just a perfectionist or maybe too detailed oriented. Who knows. OCD maybe? I haven't picked up the finished product yet and the girls are dying to see the results. Patience girls...soon. Why does it take a week? Argh! I'm ready to see what they look like now! Did I say it was the girls who were dying to see them?

Here are the pictures of the girls hard at work to make a masterpiece.
