Pumpkin Carving @20months

Saturday evening, October 27th, 2012

Dianna & Brian hosted their annual Pumpkin Carving Party last night.

20 some people, including a ton of kids, and the yummiest dinner and sweets.

Colton grazed all night...3 little mummies (hotdogs wrapped in crescent rolls), vanilla waffers, stuck his finger in cupcakes, grapes, and chips. He was happy! :)

My pumpkin chocolate chip cookies were a hit!

Wes switched his shift and arrived about 5:30.

I initially intended to wait for him to carve the pumpkin (someone to carve, someone to watch Bugs) but I was feeling adventurous and decided to go for it.

Colton was my little helper. :)

Colton helped Mommy cut the top off the pumpkin. He insisted on having his hand on the little pumpkin carving saw with mine.

He wanted to keep using the saw after we were done and he wasn't too happy when I told him it wasn't safe. So he fussed...then ran off to play with the other kiddos in the rocks.

 

 

I was super surprised he'd want to dig out the pumpkin guts! He didn't really get his hands in the gooey part, but he did scoop and scoop the seeds for a long time.

cutest ever.
 

sweet Dianna.
she and hubby Brian hosted a fun, festive, and yummy Pumpkin Party!
She had little gift baskets for each kiddo...in a cute Boo! bucket was: a light up wand for Colton, pack of raisans, goofy googly eye glasses, and bouncy balls. So thoughtful!!
