Last night we painted and carved pumpkins!
It was so much fun! McKenzie and I carved while Kerstin and Sid painted! As you can imagine Sid had most of the paint on her and the floor and the chair, etc!

Then Kerstin decided we should save the seeds to plant our own pumpkin patch next spring. As her and Sid were sorting seeds Sid tackled her with a hand-ful of pumpkin guts! There is always something fun happening here!
Stay tuned...Halloween photos to come soon! We are trick or treating on Saturday! I hope we get tons of YUMMY candy! :)



Finding the perfect pumpkin!
Kerstin's Field trip to the pumpkin patch was tons of fun! :)

Recently at my mom's Longaberger party I had a little help!
Looks like someone may be taking over for me soon!

McKenzie's Hogs:
We have been raising our pigs all summer and McKenzie has been a real trooper! Cleaning and feeding as needed! Thankfully, she has not named them or gotten too attached to them! Last week we roasted one and boy was it yummy!

Well as my dad tells me "I'm officially a soccer mom"! This is funny because I'm also a dance mom, cheer mom, and volunteer at school mom-- you get it! But you never get the title until your kid actually plays soccer!
Kerstin LOVES it! I can't even tell you how much! :)
As you can see from the photos, McKenzie is thrilled to come watch on cold, wet Saturday mornings! We are all really enjoying it!
I am also attaching a photo of Sid--her latest and greatest is to get naked!! Here she is at least wearing pants while eating her ice cream!
