Carving pumpkins

Tonight we carved our pumpkins as we do every year around Halloween. The kids were so excited to do this, they were asking us all day long when we were going to do it. Here are some pics. Enjoy!

 
Avalinea and Dad.
  
Ewww, yuck pumpkin guts on our little princess' hands!
Joshua sure does love his pumpkin guts!
And so begins the many faces of Dad... the "I could be watching TV Right now."
The "I'm rolling my eyes because I can" face.
The "I'm smiling because Mom threatened me" face. :)
Avalinea and Mom. How cute!
Joshua wanted to carve his own pumpkin this year, so he did... some of it.
Brother and Sister, love to carve pumpkins! And now begins the crazy eyes of Joshua!
I LOVE CARVING PUMPKINS eyes!!
Avy says "Mom he's doing it again..."
Ooohhhhh spooky pumpkins.
Ooooohhhhh spooky people!
Aaaaahhhhh Really Scary!!!!
Our pumpkins are on the porch.

Our littlest pumpkin Olivia was too tuckered out for all this mayhem and retired to her chambers early. She sends the cutest booo! to every one.

Weekend project: Flower beds

This is what I have been doing these past two weekends. I ripped out all the old flowers and plants replaced some dirt and added lots and lots of bulbs. I also added the small retaining walls to keep the grass from growing into the flower beds.
