Just for fun. And no he will not be dressing up as frankenstein......

Pumpkins

For family home evening we carved ourselves some pumpkins. Max was super excited to get started but once he put his hand in the big orange ball for those seeds he was not as excited anymore. It seems like we forget all the fun details of carving pumpkins. He drew the face he wanted on it and with the help of mom and dad he cut out the pieces. He also wanted it to have a super hero mask!

Brandon did a thunder cats emblem on his. It turned out looking awesome!

Camille did a silly face and the dad of the group thought she had messed up and felt bad for her until she let him know that it was on purpose :-)

We did have a good time. The first thing Max said the next morning was "The pumpkins are all ready for Halloween!" He must have dreamed about them all night.

Summer Fun

Summer time is over but we had a great one. We went camping, swimming, horse-back riding, parade watching, we had water balloon fights and ran through the sprinklers. We also spent lots of time with friends and family. There were many family reunions and bbq's with friends.

This is a snake that was painted onto Max's face when we were at family camp this year. He thought it was so cool. We had a fun time camping. Brandon went river rafting, repelling, and enjoyed other fun activities. Camille hung out with the 3 and 4 year olds and got to make lots of crafts, nature walks, blow bubbles, play on the slides, and went to the nature lodge where they got to pet a bunny. Max learned all kinds of new things like swordplay with wooden swords, made a rocket and got to blast it off, learned about the food pyramid and first aid stuff, he also got to go swimming and went in a row boat. Lots of great fun.
