Carving Pumpkins

Carving pumpkins this year was interesting, Connor dug right in and didn't want ANY help! Unfortunately he was only getting one seed at a time on his scoop. And his pumpkin was so little Eric couldn't get his hand in to help! We managed and I carved a good ol' fashion jack o'lantern face. The girls insisted on carving a more detailed pumpkin.

This picture came out blurry but I just LOVED his expression!!


McKenna carved her own pumpkin again this year, a pumpkin carved into a pumpkin!

Morgan made the attempt to carve her own, with Dad's help of course. By this time of the night, Connor and I were sitting in the recliner watching Charlie Brown's Great Pumpkin.

Morgan's Kindergarten Halloween Party

It was so nice being able to go to Morgan's class for their Halloween party. I am still amazed at how many are there! At the start of school there were 29 kids, but now there are 25 and 2 were missing on this particular day!

They had 3 games to play, bean bag toss!
Pass the pumpkin...Morgan was the first one to win a prize. Did I mention we supplied the prizes for the games and ALL the kids! We had Halloween activity books, pencils and M&Ms.

And of course candy corn Bingo!!

All 4 classes met in the gym after their costume parade and sang songs!

Here's party of the 4-class song, the other song had her facing away from me!

McKenna's Fall Portraits

Finally an opportunity to take McKenna out for some fall pics! We lucked out and since the little ones weren't with us, we were able to get some shots down by the water. I even put on a little eyeliner, mascara, blush and lipstick!

These are my favorites!!!

Fall Pictures 2010

The annual fall photos took place at Riverside Park, we got a few rain sprinkles, but lucked out before the real showers hit. Unfortunately we weren't able to get all the photos done; therefore McKenna and I will go out again to get some more shots of her!

More McKenna pictures coming soon.....

Fall Festival

We headed out to Summerville to Stargazer to their Fall Festival to pick out a pumpkin! They had some other fun, like face painting, a pony to pet, yummy fall goodies, hot chocolate and apple cider!! What a neat little place!!

The girls convinced Connor to get his face painted too!

End of Summer Photos of Connor

Connor was so excited to shoot Dad's shotgun, even if it did only have blanks! And Bailey was ready to go after the bird!!
