Jack O Lanterns

This past weekend the kids and I worked on our Jack o Lanterns..It was a windy fall weekend and the perfect time to do so!

Trev and Jeff made the grim reaper, Aubrey and I tried a castle that failed so we settled on a princess shoe, Casey cleaned out the ghost pumpkin that I carved!

The older two pros weren't fans of cleaning the pumpkin out as usual.  They wanted to get straight to carving or use the scoops. Casey on the other hand loved getting down and dirty and helped everyone clean the pumpkins!

The kids had a lot of fun and were very patient as I had to help one by one get their pumpkin done.  It was a nice day to do it..I do wish my husband was there to help with the cleaning and carving but as usual he found something else that "had" to be done!

My mom came over and helped me and the kids stuff the ghosts and string spider webs over the bushes and flower boxes on the front porch.  It added a fun little touch to the outside for Halloween!  Can you believe Halloween is only a week and a half away!
