Tonight we turned our pumpkin patch pumpkins into jack o lanterns. Last year Sam refused to get his hands mucky, however, this year it was Cole who refused to scoop out the pumpkin whereas Sam was up for the task.
With a newborn baby (who really enjoys being held) Drew and I had to tag team the effort with me and Sam cleaning out the pumpkin and then Drew taking over to do the carving. Sam chose what he wanted based on pictures he found online and helped Drew carve out the images. Cole really could have cared less about the whole process and chose to go play with Legos instead. However, he became much more enthusiastic after seeing the pumpkins all lit up and enjoying the roasted pumpkin seeds we made.
The costumes are ready, the candy has been purchased and now that we have a couple of jack o lanterns we are now officially ready for Halloween.
