Pumpkin Time!

We had a MOPS 'play date' at Pumpkin Hill the yesterday morning then we had our annual pumpkin painting last night! It's always a little stressful going somewhere with the 4 of them by myself, but we managed and they had a great time. They enjoyed getting to pick their own pumpkins.

The kids have been painting pumpkins for several years- at least since Maggie was really little- we started the tradition in Birmingham and kept going b/c they enjoy it so much. I was never very good at carving pumpkins anyway, so this is a fun alternative. We let the littles go first because I only had two paint brushes which turned out to be nice anyway 'cause I could really watch everyone paint and get some pictures.  

 Allie kept saying "paint that side, get that side" it was so cute

 Displaying their creations on the front porch this morning... Jakey being so sweet with Mags. Love you guys! Yay for another year of pumpkin patch and painting!
