Fall Fun!

Last night for FHE we or I guess I decided that we should carve pumpkins. I remember carving pumpkins as a kid and thinking it was such a blast. So Ron came home and it was getting kind of late so we set right to work. Well of course like everything else I forgot what a HUGE mess it makes and seriously it can be slightly time consuming. The girls had a great time. I however forgot to document the actual carving of the pumpkins until they were done. Probably because I was elbow deep in pumpkin guts! Oh well better luck next year. Here are the finished products!

Alyssa's is the one that is spider web. Ron is Picasso what can he say!

Here is the pumpkin Avery and I carved it is more traditional. I have to giggle a little when looking at this picture, Avery looks like she is ready to head out on a date with her pumpkin. Silly Girl!

On Saturday Aaron, Kami, Lynne, Drew and Myself decided we were going to take our kids to "Boo at the Zoo" They should put a warning label on this when advertising this event, It was scary all right but not in the way you would think. It was total craziness! I have seriously never seen so many people in one place, not even in Disneyland. We went, we saw, we will not be going back. It was still fun to get together and see the kids in their costumes. Live and Learn right?

Sydnee dressed as a spider even though it is hard to tell since she is in the snugli.

Alyssa as a peaked Hannah Montana. Poor thing on the way to the zoo she got really car sick. She spent more time in the stroller putting her head back then taking part of the events.

Garrett dressed as a Zebra. He is playing with Hannah Montana's microphone. He is seriously so cute.

Aidan as Yoda, he is such a ham!
I had to chase Griffin to get this picture he was not in a photo kind of mood. He is such a cute "lil stinker" As I was doing this post I realized I didn't have a picture of Avery or Porter. Better luck next time. Sorry Guys!

I am such a glutton for punishment. After having such a long crazy day at the zoo, with all the car sickness and such, on the way home my kids begged me to take then to the Benson Grist Mill Pumpkin Walk near our house. So I did, they had a GREAT time! Perfect ending to a kind of wild and crazy fall day!
