Decorating Pumpkins

This Halloween we had a lot of fun decorating pumpkins. The first ones we did were at Victoria's school. They wanted a lot of parent volunteers, so I showed up with all the kids (what other choice do I have?). Luckily they had extra pumpkins for Naomi and Olivia. I was grateful and they had a great time. Victoria was so happy we were there too. She really loves it when we come to her school and do things like this with her.


So, Victoria made a bird pumpkin, Olivia made a crab- with Victoria's help, and Naomi found every sparkly thing on the table and put that on her pumpkin. She is such a girly-girl :)

Pumpkins were hard to come by in Okotoks this year. They had a lot in early October, but most of them had gone rotten by the third week and by Halloween there was not a pumpkin to be found! We were given these little ones by Naomi's preschool teacher- they were done with them at school and took pity on us! We were grateful. We did find one big pumpkin and carved it with Daddy on Halloween!
