Carving Pumpkins and field trip

Yesterday Jacob had his first Kindergarten field trip..."The Farm" in Snohomish. Even though we had gone to the pumpkin patch over the weekend with the kids, he was very much looking forward to going again with his class. There were animals to look at, a hay jump, a fun playground, a corn kernel pool, hay ride and a pig show. Lots of exciting stuff!

He chose a green pumpkin this time since he got an orange one over the weekend!

Once Jason got home from work and we had dinner, we started the task of carving the pumpkins. Jacob is still grossed out about the pumpkin guts, but cleaned it out and went to work drawing sketches of what kind of face he wanted carved into it. Cameron was not at all shy when it came to touching the insides of his pumpkin. After the top was off he reached his hand right in, grabbed a handful of seeds and then popped them in his mouth.

It was a fun evening for all!

Pumpkins Patch!

This past Sunday we took the kids to the pumpkin patch to pick out the "perfect pumpkin". Jacob had been asking every day if we were going to be heading to the pumpkin patch so he was beyond excited when we finally said we were going! He had alot of fun riding cow train, going on the hay ride to the pumpkin patch and picking out his pumpkin. We all enjoyed watching Cameron experience it all for the first time too!

I have been schooled!

Yesterday, Jacob caught me throwing a breath mint of the car window while we driving.  He then scolded me for littering into God's world. ME:  "You are right Jacob, I shouldn't have done that. I am sorry."  JACOB: "Don't say sorry to me Mommy, say sorry to God.  He is the one who created the whole world, not me!" Lol, I have been schooled by my 5 year old!
