Stephen was away on a course all weekend, so the kids and I were very busy with everything from ballet to hockey to the gym (for me!) to picking out the perfect pumpkins for Halloween carving. We tried - without much success - to get some fall photos taken too. No great shots, but lots of fun!
Unfortunately, the day we went to pick out our pumpkins called for rain, and rain it did! The clouds were dark and grey as we drove to the pumpkin patch, and while we made it through most of the afternoon dry, moments before it was our turn to load up our pumpkins, a downpour started.
Once we got home, we got a few pumpkins out and tried to take a few more photos, but we looked like drowned rats by that point, don't you think? At least the kids' spirits weren't dampened, as you can see - they were full of spunk in all of the photos! I'll have to try for a few more once we do some carving.In the interim, I have to get to Scrapalicious this week to get some laundry started, and between that, the kids' school and activities, work, the next Cre8ive Idol challenge at Just Cre8 and Halloween, I don't think I can squeeze in anything else!
Stay dry, and have a great week!

They're so sweet! And every single pumpkin in that patch looks better than the sorry misshapen one H and J brought home for me to carve. It's a hilarious bit of deflating fruit, with odd little green and white pock marks all over it. Should be nice and creepy for Halloween.
What do you mean, didn't get a good shot?! I LOVE the first one of the kids. They're always so cooperative and photogenic!
Great job on the Obey Your Thirst lo. Really great.
