Our Pumpkin-Carving-Night!!!

We decided to spend a fun night carving our pumpkins, just in time for the Halloween festivites! Jason and I carve pumpkins every year, however this is the first time Isaac got to participate. Last year we were so busy getting ready for our move from Iowa to Arizona, we weren't able to.

We LOVE carving pumpkins and Jason and I usually have a little battle as to who can carve the best! No one ever wins, but it's so much fun teasing each other during the carving process! There are so many fun things that Jason and I have done together since we have met and now that we have our son,it just makes them more fun and enjoyable! We love doing stuff as a family and this is just another fun family activity we look forward to sharing with our children!


Our family pumpkins. . .
there is a Papa, Mama, and Baby Pumpkin!!!


First we draw the faces we want our pumpkins to have.
None of that fancy carving stuff, all done by hand!
Although, we eventually do want to get one of those
so we can really have some fun carving battles!!!

Isaac looks on as I stab my Mama Pumpkin!

Isaac and Papa carve their pumpkins!

LOVE this picture of my little Dragon sitting on
his Papa's lap! I love how his Dragon tail is sticking out!

Isaac really wanted to help carve the pumpkin! He kept sticking his hand out, reaching for it! Can't wait until Isaac is old enough to carve his own pumpkin!!!


Jas and his cheesy smile! He really thinks his pumpkin is going to look cooler than mine! Hmmmm, we shall see. . .

Me cleaning my pumpkin out really well!
Gotta get all those yummy pumpkin seeds out so
we can roast them!

Jas and Simba admiring our carved pumpkins!


Think we did a mighty fine job!!!

So excited to see all the kids in their costumes
and have Isaac hand out candy to them!!!


On Thursdays, I get adjusted by Jason. Isaac already
recognizes his office because when we pull up to it, he says
"Papa, Papa, Papa" non-stop! Once inside, Isaac runs around
looking for his Papa. Once he sees Jason, he then runs into
an adjusting room and climbs on the table, waiting for Jason
to release the table so it goes from the upright position into
a reclining position.

Isaac gets such a thrill when the table moves forward,
with him on it! Of course, Papa gives into him and lets
Isaac have many, many "rides" on it!

Yippeee!!!! :-)
