Looking forward to a fun weekend!

Last weekend Anth, myself, my mom and our kids went to the Pankratz Pumpkin Patch (I will post pics when I get my camera cord back from my mom). We got 2 big pumpkins, and I decided that wasn't enough so when we stopped by Walmart later that day I bought 2 more. I wanted to carve them right away, but Anth was able to convince me to wait because we didn't want them to rot before Halloween. SO...our plan is to carve them this weekend!!! I can't wait. I love having that time as a family! As gross as it feels we have some good times and good talks while digging up to our elbows in pumpkin gunk LOL Last year I had the genius idea to do the patterns. We let the kids each pick one, and we carve the one they pick for them (last year Sydney picked the hardest pattern in the book, so I let Anth do that one LOL). I swore that this year we weren't going to do patterns, because they were kind of a pain in the neck but apparently I forgot how big of a pain they were because I bought more patterns for us to do this year. After we carve our pumpkins we roast the seeds, and will probably just sit down and watch a movie together and eat seeds. Saturday afternoon we will be going to the Halloween carnival at the Complex. The kids are all excited to wear their coscumes (that's what Tasia calls costumes), and be able to play games and eat treats! Sounds like the perfect weekend to me :) I wish it would hurry up and get here!
