Halloween is near...

So in the spirit of Halloween, we carved our pumpkins for family home evening tonight. For some reason we always buy one for everyone, even though the kids don't help. We think it's cute to have 4 pumpkins out, and we let the kids pick what they want on their pumpkins. Mady wanted a smiley face and Noah wanted a kitty, probably because that was the only thing out of the list I read that he recognized. :) Mady was super crabby tonight, so she just wanted to watch a movie. Noah wanted to help though! He got right in and started grabbing the pumpkin goup and throwing it in the garbage. He was all about it and so excited. We've had the pumpkins outside for a couple weeks now, and every time he would see them he would scream, "Punkins!" So he had fun. It gets us all in the spirit of Halloween. This thursday my mom is watching our kids and my soon-to-be niece and nephew while we all go out to dinner and to Dr. Slaughters House of Terror. We're excited, we haven't been to those kind of things since before we had kids. It will be fun! Well...here's our "punkins"!
Noah's ready to go! Oh my little drama queen, this was all the excitement she could muster. Kru even joined the fun for a few minutes. The finished products!
