Pumpkins!

This year I decided not to let the girls help us carve pumpkins, but paint them instead. It gets so cold out by the time David gets home and they aren't able to help as much as they want to. Painting gave them the opportunity to do it 'all by themselves' which I think was their favorite part.

Shelby loved to 'splat' her paint on....which happens to be why it is all over her face.

Kadence took the more delicate road. She was very serious about her painting.


We bought some pre-cut cookies so the girls could help put them on the pan without the mess. They loved it!

I handed Kadence a cookie to put on the cookie sheet and turned around to get Shelby a cookie. Right as soon as I turned around, Kadence took a bite of the cookie dough. David, Jeff and I were laughing SO hard. Then she thought she was in trouble and spit the piece she ate out onto the pan. What a character. We all had a fun time and the girls were so proud of their pumpkins.
