Meet Jack and Jill!

Last night we carved the pumpkins that we brought home from the pumpkin patch. We had never done this before with the kids and it's been years since Andrew or I had done it either, so we had such a fun time showing the kids what it was all about. We were also glad that Grandma and Poppy were still here to participate in all the fun.

The kids excited to get started!

Taking the "hat" off.

Parker had to have a turn, too.

Dad and Andrew digging out the seeds.

Sadie was happy to get in on it....

 ....but Parker would NOT touch any of it and would only help clean it out with a spoon.

It took a lot of scraping to get everything out!

Time to draw on the faces!

The kids were more than happy to take turns pulling out pieces as they were cut.

Working on the next one.

Waiting for Daddy to finish carving. Sadie with Poppy....

....and Parker with Gram.

All done! Here's Jack....

....and Jill!

Aren't they cute? The kids were sooooooo excited when we turned off the lights after lighting the candles inside!

And to finish off our evening, the kids watching Tangled and eating popcorn....

....and the grown-ups playing cards!

We are so glad that Grandma and Poppy were able to come and spend some time with us, and we're always sad to see them go. Until next time!
