Karoline loved seeing the many pumpkins put out on porches, at the pumpkin patch, or in the new pumpkin book we read. She points, smiles, and says, "pumpy!" We definitely got our fill of pumpkins this year and it started with our traditional trip to our neighborhood Peterson Family Farm...
All of the kids were SO excited to find the perfect pumpkin so off they went...
Karoline became quite attached to her pumpkin and was not about to let go. We took a picture but I realized Karoline was turned around...
...so when I started to turn her around for a picture, she thought I was going to take it away and this is how she reacted:
Tucker and Roman being the manly men they are in lifting up they great big pumpkin!
Then Roman found his favorite:
And Capri found a green one:
Once they decided which they liked best, we tried to get a picture, "tried" being the key word:
Once we were home, however, and Karoline realized this pumpkin was hers to keep, she was all smiles!
PUMPKIN CARVING
You can't have a plain pumpkin! We got the kiddos in their jammies and Daddy started to dig out the guts. The kids loved that they were called guts. Are we already to that age?! When deciding what to carve, Capri saw the spider stencil and knew immediately that was what she wanted. She is kind of obsessed with bugs these days so it was very appropriate. Roman was all in with the spider as well and thought it would be cool. Again, are they that old to even know to be cool?
Getting started on the carving:

And the final product!
Way to go sweetheart!
