Pumpkins

For Family Home Evening we carved pumpkins usually I like to buy a pumpkin for each person in the family but since I am the one that ends up carving ALL the pumpkins I just got two this year, Jethro varies year to year on whether he is into carving or not, I love it but he did help Ana carve her pumpkin this year so I think from now on I'll just buy enough for the kids. It was perfect just two pumpkins and this year Ana was more into it and a lot more helpful too, she drew her own face and helped clean and carve it to. I think she did a pretty good job!!

I like to call it "Scare or be scared"

Happy 60th Mom!

Last week was my moms birthday and she is a glorious, wise and wonderful 60 years young!! We surprised her with a birthday party at Brickoven and later we hung out at the house and ate cake and ice cream. It was alot of fun, all of us were there which is rare these days. It was lots of fun being with everyone again, I'm so grateful to have a wonderful family and most importantly two wonderful parents. My mom is my best friend and I know I can turn to her for anything and she will be there for me at a drop of a hat. I'm so thankful to my Father in Heaven for blessing me with a wonedrful mother!!

Kids say the funniest things
