Pumpkin Carving is Awesome!

We had our 4th annual pumpkin carving this last weekend and it was so much fun! We of course carved some pumpkins, ate lots of good food, hung out around the bonfire and I do believe there was a little bit of drinking going on too!! I carved my pumpkin the night before becuase I never get time to sit down and carve one during the party - too busy talking to everyone and taking pictures (and this year holding Lincoln - my friends 6 week old little boy). Colton carved his first pumpkin with Grandma Yvonne's help. Frankie never actually carved a pumpkin this year - he was a little too busy entertaining (and by entertaining I mean handing out shots of alcohol to unexpecting guests). We had a great time and can't wait until next years party. Here is a link to the pictures from the party (sometimes the pics get a little out of order so you might see a duplicate or two but keep watching and you will see them all - about 40!):


Colton is going to be Elmo for Halloween this year! We are very excited to take him Trick or Treating, I think he will really understand what is going on this year. And we have been practicing saying "Trick or Treat" and he is getting quite good at it! Other than that not much new, the flu hit our household two weekends ago! All three of us got sick and then my mom and my brother got it too. It was no fun at all, but hopefully it is out of our system now and we won't get it again this flu season (although I doubt we can be that lucky). Colton loves his new school. This is his 3rd week, and already I can tell how much he is learning. He is talking even more than before and in much longer sentences. And on Thursday I get to be at home with him which is awesome, I don't ever want to give it up. We sleep in (if you call 8am sleeping in), we hang out in our jammies until lunch time, we take a nap and then just chill on the couch and watch Disney movies - I am telling you it is the best day of the week. Well I think that is all, Happy Halloween everyone!

  1. GREAT Pictures! I am so bummed we missed your party! It was a very scary weekend, I'm just glad it's over and that Isaac is doing much better! Evie & Elijah has a really fun time at the party all they could talk about is how cute Colton looked in his Elmo costume or how he known around our house "Melmo" We should get together on a Thursday, maybe the MN Zoo soon? Let me know...mornings around 10 or so is usually a good time for us. Take Care!
