Chili Cook Off and Pumpkin Carving

This picture was taken at our Ward's Annual Chili Cook-Off. It was really fun this year! It is fun to have Aunt Hallie and the rest of the family in our ward to celebrate with us. As you can see by Christine's face, the food and candy was awesome! Good times!


For Family Night, we went to the pumpkin patch to get our pumpkin. Well, we waited too long and the pickings were not so good, so we ended up just getting our pumpkin at a local grocery store. But, the patch still had some great photo spots and things for the kids to do, so it was still worth going. This is at the entrance.

Almost four feet tall!

3 feet tall!

I have no idea why Lex decided to pose this way, but it is funny! Christine also makes me laugh in this pic. can you say, huh?

Highlight for Lex

Carving time! Chris loves carving pumpkins. I don't and the kids, well, don't either. Chris never loses hope though. Every year he thinks it will be the year when the girls will love it and it never happens. Oh well, hopefully Corbin will love it next year and then it can be a son/dad bonding thing. We shall see!

He did, however, convince Lexi to touch the insides of the pumpkin and she did for like 5 seconds while I snapped this picture. Then, she immediately ran to the bathroom to wash her hands and exclaim that she is never going to do that again. 

But, we all loved our finished pirate pumpkin.


Good work, Dad!
