It has been SOO long, and I do apologize for the lengthy absence. I have a lot to update! Holiday fun, Sophia learning, growing and making me laugh every single day! I will start where i left off!
Halloween this year was so fun! We went and picked out pumpkins, Sophia picking out her very own! Walking up and down the isles, finally picking one that was just right and her size!
Nate and I also picked out our pumpkins, making sure we had just the right one for our annual pumpkin carving contest the following night!
Fast Forward to Pumpkin Carving Contest of 2011!
This is a tradition that we have made for a few years, hold a pumpkin carving contest, have dinner and my nephew J gets to vote on who had the best pumpkin carved! (Last year I won!!) Sophia was so excited this year, as she was actually able to participate in carving, emptying of pumpkin guts (ish) and putting the candle in (unlit of course)! Without further ado.. away we carved!
**she was not to fond of the feeling of pumpkin guts, cant say i blame her!**
**Yes, my girl is a lefty :)!**
**Uncle L had already carved out the tops of all pumpkins, and unknowingly my sister carved out the other “top” therefore leaving this pumpkin, HILLARIOUS!**
Drum Roll please…… The winner is ME!! I make a mean pumpkin!
PS.. mine is the one all the way to the left, the most “normal” pumpkin carved.
All in all it was a great time had by all and we are looking forward to next years Annual Pumpkin Carving Contest!
