PUMPKINS :)

We went to a local farmers market corner to get some pumpkins this year (the kids were a little sad to not go to a pumpkin field and pick their own, but we couldn't find any like that). Then we had a good time carving them. Brendan drew a face and carved his own pumpkin for the first time ALL BY HIMSELF :) Daelyn was quite the little pumpkin carver and carved two pumpkins by herself and even helped Cameron carve his pumpkin. Normally I end up having to pretty much carve all of the pumpkins, So I have to say that I TRULY ENJOYED sitting back and watching the kids do their own pumpkins. The kids are getting SO big :(
Sammy was just hoping that something other than pumpkin would fall on the floor ;) We all had a FUN time carving pumpkins together!


I helped Daelyn's 3rd grade class with a pumpkin lab at school and the teacher asked me to bring baked pumpkin seeds on Monday for the students to try since most of them had never tasted them. So, we saved and cleaned all of the seeds from the pumpkins and I baked three different flavors for the students to try.... I hope the like them, we enjoyed the ones that we tasted :)
