Pumpkins

I have to say I'm a little embarrassed that this is one of the jack o lanterns that graced our front porch. Ed and Katie found this "cool" looking pumpkin on the internet and just HAD to do it! It's affectionately titled "Puking Pumpkin" Nice, huh?


These are the other two pumpkins that we carved. Much better. Rebecca chose a very traditional face with the triangle eyes and nose. I like traditional.


Allison dressed as a frog for trick or treating with her preschool class. Then that night she was Rupunzel. Rebecca dressed as Dorothy for her Character Day at school and then as Snow White to trick or treat. Katie opted to pass out candy. I think she may have wished she'd gone out with her sisters. Maybe she'll want to go out next year.

We have had snow showers several different days now! I went out and bought winter boots for the girls today. I was surprised that there is still a good selection! It seems like a full blown storm could happen any minute!! Nothing has accumulated yet - thank goodness! I enjoy the snow but it does seem a little early. Last Thanksgiving Ed was putting up Christmas lights and the snow was a -comin' down! It was very pretty.

LOST - They are so going to leave us hanging. I'm not sure if Juliet is to be trusted. And the black cloud...Eko saw it as a black, evil thing; John saw it as a beautiful white light! Hmmm...And now Eko is dead. I liked Eko. I don't like the new people Nikki and Paulo, I don't have a reason, I just don't want any new people to come on the scene and mix things up.

Survivor - BORING! I recorded it last night and fast forwarded most of it. Same old, same old.

Katie and I are going to the movies tomorrow night to see Flicka. We're going with some of her friends and one other mom. Should be a fun time. The movie looks cute; and perfect for 6th grade girls. I'll let you know how it is.

We are trying out a new church. The e-free church we've been going to is not really working out for us. Most of the people there are older than us and there aren't very many kids. We are going to try a different church for awhile and see if it's a better fit for us. So far, we all like it a lot. The music is awesome. There were 14 kids in Becky's class and at least 6 in Allison's class. I'm not sure about Katie's class, she wanted to stay in the service with Ed and I. We'll find out this week. She loved the music. And they do a drama every week before the preaching. It's all pretty cool. This church is the sponsor of the local MOPS group, so there were many familiar faces from MOPS at church, that was nice. We'll keep you posted.

Have a great weekend!
