Happy Jack-O-Lanterns!

Halloween has always been one of our favorite times of year! The fall smell of pumpkin and spice, wood burning stoves, and the crispness of the morning air is always a welcome change after the long hot summer! We love to be festive at our house, so October always means watching fun Halloween shows on TV, baking and frosting pumpkin, ghost, and bat shaped sugar cookies, and carving pumpkins! Jaycie and Kylie took a break this year from carving! Those girls are getting so busy these days! Sometimes it's hard to keep up! Skyler, Brynklie and Jaxyn kept the tradition alive though, and had a great time!
Pumpkin guts!

Skyler gutted, and carved his own pumpkin this year with NO help! I was a little nervous with the big knife........but he did a great job!


Brynklie always loves to carve pumpkins!
Ooey, Gooey!
Havin' a ball.........Jaxyn loves a mess!
The finished product! Nice hat Sky!


My little punkin!


Jaxyn and his pumpkin both have scary teeth!!
Happy Halloween!!!
