Your first pumpkin carving party!

Last night was your first pumpkin carving party! You'll have many more of these parties as you grow up! It was fun to start this tradition with you.

The week before Halloween we go to the Habrat's house and carve pumpkins, eat chili, and wear flannel (Don't ask me, you'll have to ask your "Uncle" George about that one...). I couldn't find you anything flannel for you to wear unless it was for a boy and that just wasn't going to work for me! I made you a little skull flannel skirt. I didn't really like how it turned out, but it was cute enough to wear for this :)

You made yourself comfy on the table while everyone prepared to carve their pumpkins!



MMMM! MMMM! MMMM! This is yummy!



Daddy working on your pumpkin (and cousin Lauren working on hers)



Oh Daddy! I love it. It looks just like me!!



Your favorite people... Auntie Nea Nea, Cousin Lauren, and Mommy :)




Aunt Dana & Ben


Uncle George & Sophie



Sophie cleaning out her pumpkin. Her Daddy asked her if she wanted a happy or mean pumpkin. She wanted a sad pumpkin which stumped him...haha!



This year Michelle, Jeff, Payton, and Jaxson joined in on the fun! You and Jax played together and it was so cute - which I didn't get any pictures of :( Payton had fun carving pumpkins and her and Sophie played together. I'm not sure I'm looking forward to things with you in about 3 years...haha! Two girls under the age of 4 are VERY loud!
