We carved it: 2009

It's pumpkin carving night with The Moon Team! First, Daddy handles the nasty stuff.

 

They're definitely his girls, because Tanner LOVED touching it.

Katelynn did too.

 

Nasty.

 

I'm partial, but I think they're beautiful! :)

 

And I never get tired of this little face. :)

The little truffle had been quietly getting his jungle gym on...

 

When we interrupted him.  Jax, meet Pumpkin.

"Hey mom, look at this big cool orange thing!"

"I want to get in it...Hi Mom!  I'm the cutest lil' punkin' EVER." ;)

He liked it way better than Tanner did.  The secret?  Socks.  We learned that the hard way.  Meanwhile, Katelynn sketched out our pumkpin masterpiece.

Here he is...

 

Ta-Da!

 

What they don't know is that pumpkin night is my favorite, because I "have" to do something crafty and it's considered good parenting.  That, my friends, is a win-win situation.

 

I LOVE carving pumpkins.  :)  Haha BOO.

 

She loved it.  Which is awesome.  Because my whole goal was to make what was in her head come alive!

 

And because I'm being all emo today, look how much she's grown since last year.

 

And look how much SHE'S grown.  Blows my mind.  Makes me want to hold them all a little longer... because I have a feeling they'll be carving their own pumpkins before I can even blink.  

I heart family time. :)
