Painting and carving pumpkins

Kailey has been Jacob's bestest girl since they were one.  She is so sweet to him and I love watching them laugh and play together.
Kailey's little sister, Lexi, goes back and forth trying to decide if she wants to marry Gavin or Casey when she grows up.  Currently she is going with Gavin.

They came over to paint pumpkins and make cupcakes with us.
 

We have watercolors, but I don't think Casey has ever used tempura paint before.  He was absolutely in heaven piling all of the colors on top of his pumpkin!

Mmmmmmmm!

Then last night we carved pumpkins!!
 We also melted caramel for apples... they were especially motivated to help mommy.  :)



 Jacob was trying so hard to do everything on his own this year.  I was impressed with his patience as he scooped out every. single. seed.
 Daddy helped Casey make a jack-o-lantern.
 Gavin's pumpkin was rotten on the inside.   (SO gross!)  So he and I carved my pumpkin together.

 Here they are!  Daddy's pumpkin, Mommy and Gavin's pumpkin (he picked out the design though :), Jacob's pumpkin, and little Casey's pumpkin.
