Pumpkin Carving!

Last Sunday we had a fun afternoon carving our pumpkins. Nate got an idea of how to do his...he makes me laugh, I just love him!

The rest of the story...

So while Nate was coming up with new and improved ways to carve a pumpkin, Elizabeth and I were hard at work with the old fashioned way! Sarah was so funny because right when Nate got out the drill she wanted nothing to do with it..."noisy" she said. Instead she took a chunk of the pumpkin and nibbled on it the rest of the evening! Elizabeth drew the face of her pumpkin all by herself, I just cut it out for her, I thought it turned out very, very cute!

Harvest!

Ah, it is that wonderful time of year, my favorite time of year - Fall! I love the crisp but not too cold weather, the changing of the leaves, and harvest. We ended up having a pretty good crop from our garden this year and we just picked the last of it - the pumpkins!
I am already missing the tomatoes. I bought some at the store this week and they are so pale in color and do not have much taste at all, funny how quickly we got spoiled with good tasting tomatoes.
A few weeks ago, before the first frost, we pulled up all our basil and shared it with the care group - we had a pesto making party! Yummy!

The days have been busy and I am not seeming to find time to post much, although I have had lots of thoughts and cute pictures I would love to share. Perhaps another day, maybe when the snow comes and we are inside more!
May you enjoy the harvest this year!
