CARVING SCARY PUMPKINS. . . .




We sure had a great weekend! My parents called on Friday morning to tell me they would be coming to visit this weekend. First thing Saturday morning there they where! I think they left at the crack of dawn to come here. We had a productive visit. My mom and I cooked some, and my Dad, Shannon and the boys went to the pumpkin patch. Last night my parents cooked dinner for the boys and Shannon and I got to go out to dinner by ourselves. What a treat!

We woke up early this morning and after breakfast Shannon, the boys and I went to church. It was so cute, the kids did a parade for All Saints Day and dressed up as saints, marched down the center up to the front and sang a song. After church we came home and visited with my parents a little more before they placed their Donna Kaye's to go order, and were on their way home. We went and picked out a few pumpkins at the market and carved them up. David played most of the time, but Skyler put some elbow grease in. Shannon did a ghost with a tombstone, and I did the spider. I was pretty pleased with how it turned out.

So as I said. . . a pretty great weekend. The time change always kind of messes me up, but I am sure my body will catch up soon. Thanks so much Mom and Dad for coming up to visit. As I said a couple of weeks ago, I am truely lucky that I have such a wonderful loving family.

Happy Haunting!
Love,
Shell

Shannon....is it cheating using a drill when pumpkin carving?

Love the updates of the family, Thanks for sharing them!
