{Pumpkin Men, Class Parties and Carving Our Masterpieces}

::pumpkin men::

dave and aubrey put together our pumpkin snowman this year.
we haven't done that in a few years and she thought it was the funniest thing.
she got a little grossed out during the drilling and dowel part but she got over it.

 

here's a little peek at the first time we built one in 2006.

 

here comes jane in my shoes to help.

 

why oh why didn't i get a better picture?:(

::class parties::

 

so lucky to be able to pop into aubrey's pumpkin party.

one of the many things about staying home with these angels i am most blessed to have...flexibility and freedom. (thank you baby!)

 

they had five little centers:

fishing for treats

sweep the pumpkin down the hall

bean bag toss

pin the nose on the pumpkin

and trick or treat...where they drew a card to do a trick for a treat.

 

not the greatest pictures...but a lot of sweet memories.

 

anyone else totally wigged out by plastic teeth....ahh...shivers....:)

 

she looks so shy and nervous sometimes.
but always smiles for her best friend rachel:)

lucky me...i helped at janey's party too.

 

hermione and her best friend the cupcake.

tough to get these two in one shot in a crowded classroom.:)

::carving time::

 

 

look out for daddy's with pumpkin gut removing drill attachments:)

 

 

seeing those pumpkin discovery faces never gets old.

one last hug before the faces come.

and yes, i do have a sentimental one who is sad to carve her pumpkin.

throw it away in november too for that matter....any guesses??!!:)

 

meet two harry potters and the silly girl.

 

have a happy day,
