Carving Our Pumpkin

After the Vision Walk (and nap time) the Lambert's invited us over to carve pumpkins and eat yummy homemade pizza and cookies.

Kinsley was a big help in gutting the pumpkin.

We asked Kinsley if she wanted a "scary pumpkin face" or a "happy pumpkin face," surprisingly, she chose a scary face.

Aila wasn't much help. She spent most of the evening like this.

The finished product.

Thanks Lambert's for having us over for a fun evening! There is a slight possibility that I may have eaten the entire plate of cookies you sent home with us (midnight snack, 2:30 am snack, 5:00 am snack, breakfast) ...... I am still eating for two right!?!?! Thanks for helping me get back to my pre-pregnancy weight! (j/k)

“I don’t want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing Sister Schenk’s lawn. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbor’s children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone’s garden. I want to be there with children’s sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived.”
