Happy Fall!

Today was a great day to carve the pumpkins Grandma Sandi gave Gabe and Caleb (grown in her garden!). Gabe decided he wanted a pumpkin with triangle eyes, a square nose and a smiley mouth with no teeth - he was very specific with his instructions! So, that's what he got! He helped scoop out all the guts, which he finally warmed up to after being really hesitant to get his hands "icky." Daddy helped carve the faces and...voila! Super cute jack-o-lanterns. Thanks for the pumpkins Grandma Sandi!
