Carvin' Out Some Fun

This weekend we went to an annual pumpkin carving party hosted by Lynn and Neil Johnson.  There were lots of families there to participate in the carving fun and enjoy some fellowship with friends.  Calleigh stuck to carving a traditional jack-o-lantern.  Carson strategically planned to carve a Dallas Cowboys pumpkin, complete with a star, "D", and football carved into the pumpkin.  He did this with the assumption that Lynn and Neil, avid Dallas Cowboys fans, would be the people judging the pumpkins.  You have to admit that was smart thinking on his part.  The only thing was Lynn and Neil were not the judges.  Better luck next year, buddy!  The pumpkins that did win were very elaborate and way beyond my creative ability.  They were impressive!  Here are my little pumpkin carvers with their pumpkins. . .

LOVE the fireplace in the back yard. Would love to see it. Carson and Calleigh you did a great job on your pumpkin. Carson, Memi would like for you to tell me about your pumpkin, the interesting carving. Looks neat.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

We have two new trick-or-treaters this year, Winnie the Pooh and Tigger with Mommy and Daddy, Fred and Wilma Flintstone. Should be fun.

Love you,
