pumpkin carving

We grew two pumpkins this year in the garden, except one is still pretty green. So we got three more on our trip to Larry's Produce. Addie still wasn't crazy about scooping the guts out of the pumpkin. She immediately wanted to wash her hands. Then she watched while Kevin and I carved, and this year, dremeled designs into the pumpkins. Liam took a nice nap while all of this excitement was going on and I wonder how he'll feel about pumpkin guts next year!


costume parade

Addelyn's preschool had a costume parade and sang a couple of Halloween songs for us parents! It was absolutely adorable! It doesn't get much cuter than a bunch of three year olds in costumes! 




our race car driver

For Kevin's birthday we got him a racing experience, where he got to take a class, suit up, and drive a real Nascar car (okay really close to one). The kids did so good and patiently waited for their daddy's turn to drive the loud, fast car around the track. We had fun watching him and I think he enjoyed it too.
Kevin just finished his class and was ready to suit up.
Looking official!
In the car, while his "pit crew" puts on the finishing touches.
Coming round the corner!
There he goes!
Daddy's cheering section!
Go Daddy! Go!
A big hug for Daddy!
