FHE Pumpkin Fun!

So yesterday for Family Home Evening, we decided we had waited long enough to carve pumpkins. James Micheal got to pick out a little baby pumpkin that he got to color on with a crayon. James and I picked out a good medium sized one and decided to only carve one this year. James actually did most of the work. During Family Home Evening we enjoyed pumpkin cookies(yummy)and had a good lesson on being a child of God. We are trying to prepare James Micheal for the new baby, so he isn't too upset when Evan is born. He seems to realize something is going on, because he always touches my belly and looks at it. And he likes kissing the baby, which means he drools all over my tummy. But, hopefully the baby won't totally rattle him, January seems to be coming fast. Anyways, after lesson we watched dad carve the pumpkin and James Micheal and I colored in his coloring book and on his pumpkin. It was a great night, and Makayla enjoyed jumping in her jumper to church music playing in the living room. I definetly love the start of the holidays, I think Halloween really ushers in the fall season well. Enjoy the pictures!

Did you save any pumpkin cookies for me? You know how much I love them! I think James made that face last time that we carved pumpkins with you, and I think Russ probably made that face too!
