Fall Festivities

A Couple weeks ago, I took the boys to a local pumpkin patch. They also had a bounce house and we were the only ones there! Between jumps, the boys picked out several pumpkins we got to bring home and they also got a little pumpkin of their own!

Friday we had a low key Family night. We had breakfast for dinner and then carved a pumpkin as a family. The boys were so excited about this. They helped cut the face but it was a bit scary to give a 2 and 3 year old a knife so I took the reins and finished! They were all about the cutting, playing in the seeds with a spoon and finally putting the "fire" in the pumpkin.

The following day we went to Boo at The Zoo with Kelly, Brooks and Bryce. It was expectantly crowded but fun. All three boys were dressed in their costumes and ready to Trick-or-Treat! We did more of the Boo at The Zoo activities than we did look at animals. It was a fun treat for the boys and they got plenty of candy!!

We also attended the Old Fashioned Spaghetti Dinner at CCA that night. It is a fundraiser to raise money for our school. It was a lot of work but a lot of fun and a huge success. We bid on a 'Twas The Night Before Christmas basket and won...it is full of fun stuff we can do together this Christmas (cookie mixes, hot chocolate, Christmas book, throw, Christmas movie, pop corn, candy, Cookies For Santa platter...). We can't wait to enjoy it all!!
