I seriously LOVE autumn and the Halloween season! There are so many fun things to do with the kids (and Fay and Carter too)! Here’s a little sample of our autumn activities!
Our library randomly had a couple spooky scenes set up for taking pictures. So fun! (Sorry its blurry)
We went to Cornbelly’s and did a bunch of the activities ; but the kids liked the corn box best of anything! We parents liked it a lot too!
This past Monday for Family Party (our new and improved version of Family Home Evening) we decorated pumpkins! The kids used stickers, and they both loved it!
Fay’s favorite “haunted thing” (as she likes to call them) are mummies. I’m pretty sure that she is the cutest thing to ever pose with a mummy pumpkin!
With Josh’s help, Carter created a stickered jack-o-lantern for his pumpkin. This is as much of a pose as we could get out of him.
They look so happy together!
Josh and I carved pumpkins. I forgot to take pictures of ours on Monday, so these are 3 day old jack-o-lanterns. My jack-o-lantern’s top fell in, despite all my efforts to prevent it. sigh…
Boo!
Josh is especially loving this Halloween season because he can finally embrace his love of haunted house-ing. He has some really cool plans for this year, and though he continues to assure me that his plans constitute “starting small since its our first year,” it is going to be pretty elaborate and exciting! If you’re in the area, come see us on Halloween night! If you’re not close, I’ll post pictures soon after Halloween. Either way, just get excited!
All the pumpkins are adorable! Also, woah, that project at the end looks cool! I’m excited for your starting-small year!
You guys do such fun stuff. You’re a wonderful mom. I love reading you blog and it was so great seeing you at the funeral. Love ya, cuz 🙂
