We've made a little discovery about 6 of 8.
That whole pumpkin carving thing?
For 6 of 8?
Um, not so much....
Now the rest of the kiddos would find reason to carve a pumpkin a month...a Santa pumpkin, a Happy 2009 pumpkin, a Valentine heart pumpkin...
But 6 of 8?...
I don't think there's even a caption worthy of the above expression.
Why, look!!! It's a rare sighting of a ruminant, reticulated gourd-kicker! Wow! That's two sightings in a very short period of time!
Save some Reese's Peanut Butter cups for me tonight,
Those are adorable pictures, and that giraffe makes me giggle.
ReplyDeletePumpkin carving is so much fun NOT!!! Hope you all had fun Happy Halloween
ReplyDeleteYes. The Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and the Twix Bars mysteriously disappear every year from my kids' stash. They know not why...
ReplyDeletewe did the pumpkin carving on Wednesday .. end results on the blog .. it was a first time for the 13 year old .. we had a blast
ReplyDeleteLook like they're having so much fun PS I love the last picture that little giraffe it just to adorable!!!!
ReplyDeleteGREAT! Now I am craving Resse's BC! By the way madame, did you expect less out of such a precious princess?
ReplyDeleteThe Giraffe is adorable!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun time!! I must admit I had an epiphany....more than one pumpkin....why hadn't that occurred to me...its always a hassle 1 pumpkin 10 kids....duh! I just need to think outside the box :)
That's funny. I expected the same reaction from Libby, since this is her first experience with actually carving a pumpking (we just put some little add-ons to our pumpking last year). I was suprised at how she just dug right in. Up to her elbows in pumpkin!
ReplyDeleteWhat cute pictures! Hope you have a very HAPPY HALLOWEEN :)
ReplyDeleteToo cute! Love the first pic of the fam with their pumpkins!! =)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your PB cups, I am going to eat Halloween candy and blog after my little man passes out from his sugar high... Love the expression on 6 of 8's face... Priceless! Mason wanted nothing to do with the yucky innards of the pumplin, he only wanted the finished product...
ReplyDeleteCarving outside! What a great idea! But then that would have reqired a little more foresight than carving at 7 pm on Halloween eve :) Happy Halloween.
ReplyDeleteI love how siblings are so different from each other. It sure makes life exciting, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!
Um sorry. The reeses are all for me. And the twix. You can have the skittles and m&ms
ReplyDelete6 of 8...I am with YOU! I feel your pain - Oh sorry wrong President...6 of 8: Be a maverick. Go for it. Jump in guns a blazin'....Or if some of you prefer...6 of 8: It's time for a change, try something new. It will make you a better person for it....
ReplyDeleteReally---I am with this one---NOT gonna do it, NOT gonna do it.
And now back to our regularly scheduled life.
I have yet to carve a pumpkin. One of these days, next year!!
ReplyDeleteI think it is so much fun...when hubby does it with the kids and I can watch and take the pics! :)
ReplyDeleteShe's so cute. I wish I could get my kids to look and smile at the same time. So funny he's still with the giraffe costume!
ReplyDeleteYUM!! Halloween and diet's don't go together!!
ReplyDeletecute photos'
I'm sad to say that lately, your pictures don't load for me. Wasn't always the case and I'm not sure what's wrong, but it sounds like you all had fun!
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween! Those are great pictures!
ReplyDeleteGiraffes ARE herbivores...maybe a snack is pending? ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween!
Can I just say what an amazingly beautiful family you have?!?! Every time I look at your pictures I am always reminded of God's goodness...and the joy in family life...not in a cheesy Hallmark way...but in a for real and honest way...
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm totally with miss #6. Pumpkin carving grosses me out. I know when the boys get older they will geek out about it...but for now we paint! :)
Hope you're feeling better my friend..
Blessings!
Love 6 of 8. I'm not crazy about pumpkin carving either. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my! The look on her face is priceless!
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween!
Aww! Gabe TOTALLY agrees with 6 of 8!! They played with the guts of a pumpkin at his therapy and he was having NONE of it!!
ReplyDeleteThe giraffe is too cute!
We have plenty of Reeses PB cups! Every time I went to a door with G last night, John said "Get a reeses pb cup!"
Love the pictures! And your blog... it's my first visit, and I'm pretty sure I'll be back soon! Have a great evening! :)
ReplyDeleteCUTE Pumpkins- and even CUTER kids!! I never carved our pumpkins this year :( I guess it will get easier for me to remember to do those things when the kids are actually old enough to help!!
ReplyDeleteOMG that is so funny. My youngest will not even touch the pumpkin till all the gooey insides are cleaned out.
ReplyDeleteI just finished sorting the chocolate from everything else. That's right. I'm stashing it and I won't tell where it is, even if you tickle me! Sweet pictures! I love the giraffe, too!
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with her. It's gross and so much work! LOL! Great pics, and I love the little pumpkin kicker and car-driving unicorn.
ReplyDeleteDo you toast up all of those seeds when you are done? I have only done it once after the gazillion seeds from the 19 thousand pumpkins my kids carved. They were very yummy (but what a mess!)
ReplyDeleteI'm with 6! Don't like the gooey mess!
Lol! the kids seems to have had a good time. We did the pumpkin carving thing for the first time this year. I ended up toasting the seeds with nutmeg, cinnamon and a bit of sugar, it was delicious!
