Pumpkin Craft

I found this cute idea here. She used apples, but I decided to make pumpkins for fall. I cut pumpkin shapes out of black construction paper and then cut out the inside. I taped a piece of contact paper onto the table, then stuck on all the pumpkins.
They boys had fun sticking the orange scrap pieces onto the pumpkins. This was a really easy, quick craft to make.
When they were finished, I placed another piece of contact paper on top and simply cut around each pumpkin. We now have our cute little pumpkins hanging in our windows just in time for Halloween.

Easy Halloween Decoration

We had some leftover pieces of wood lying around that the boys love to play with, but I decided to spray paint them and make some Halloween decorations. I got the idea here.
Here are my finished mummies and jack-o-lanterns. I think they're pretty cute!

My Fortune

We went out for my favorite Chinese tonight and this was in my fortune cookie. I could not believe it!
I posted it on my Facebook because it was just too funny. But I think my sister-in-law got it right when she commented, "Do you think it could be a hillbilly fortune...you know..search yer backyard fer the mower I barried last week. That kind of treasure?"

Pumpkin Patch

Big Brother went on his first kindergarten field
trip today to the Pumpkin Patch.
Baby Jaws came along for the fun.
The pumpkin patch.
These were the most mellow calves I've ever seen,
even with all the kids climbing all over to pet them.
The train ride was a favorite.
Best buds.
