Pumpkin carving fun

The G6 invited us over for a pumpkin carving party!

We each made goody bags. Sheree made sweet (candy) ones, and I made salty (chex mix) ones. We ended up taking them to the soccer games on Saturday, and the kids loved having a special treat!

The Daddies and kids went to town cleaning out the pumpkin guts (yes, we are keeping seeds to bake some).

We printed out pumpkin faces and the Daddies got to work. To bad they had to leave for the Jay-Z concert and only got one pumpkin carved, each!

What's a party without balloons?

After awhile, the kids decided to make faces on the balloons. This is Emma's. Can you see the barrette in the "hair"?

Jack-o-lantern pizza for the kids.

Ummm......is that a pizza pie???

NO!.....I kinda messed up with the second pizza. I got a little ahead of myself and added all the toppings to the very thin pizza crust while it was still on the cutting board. Um...ya, we had to move the pizza on to a oven pan so that we could cook it in the oven. What a mess!

But, the Daddies saved the day (and the pizza)!

I had to show a picture of the punch that Sheree made. It was orange pop and vanilla ice-cream. It started foaming after the orange pop went in....sicknast!!

The kids gobbled it up, though!

After the Daddies left, the kids settled down with a good game of Apples to Apples.

Then they moved on to puzzles.

The day after the concert, Dao finished up all the pumpkins. Can you guess which pumpkin goes with each child?

Doesn't look like we are going to make it to the pumpkin farm this year. :'( The weekends are just to busy with soccer (and rain). So here are some pics of pumpkin farm's past. :0)
