Pumpkins

Nate and I love to get into holidays. We thought it was time to get Tanner and Jocie a pumpkin and get them carved since it is almost Halloween. I can't believe how fast time is flying by. Anyway, Nate carved Jocie's and made one of his cool tree's that he likes doing (and does really good at) and Tanner wanted some ghosts, so that's what I carved on his. We didn't get to carve last year so this was really the first time Tanner got to experience the carving. It was so funny because Nate asked him to help pull out all the seeds once he cut the top off and he took one look inside and said "gross, what is that. I don't want to touch in there." We finally got him to telling him it was cool and fun.....I know, awesome parenting huh. So he reached in carefully, took out one seed and then threw it. He said "Daddy, you can do that part and I will just cut it with a knife k". Jocie had fun watching drinking her milk and playing with her "baby". It was getting late so we put her to bed, finished carving and then took them outside to see the results. When we walked outside we heard jumbling in our garbage can and out poked a.......(look below to find out.......intense, I know). Oh yeah and I also made snickers popcorn for the first time and it made a freakin TON. I don't know what that recipe was thinking but next time I will for sure do a 1/4 of it :). It was yummy though. We had a stellar night!!
