"Who hears these words of mine & puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine & does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house, & it fell with a great crash."

Matthew 7:24-27

Pumpkin Carving 2015

So, once again, our pumpkin carving didn't happen until after Halloween, but better late than never, right?! :)  Everyone had something that they wanted to carve on the pumpkin, I think Norah wanted something to do with Frozen, but in the end, we decided on a nice face.  Erik began by drawing the face, and then they started cutting it open.  Kyler was eager to dig in and help scoop out the goop.  Norah wanted to help too, although she didn't do a whole lot of scooping.  Grace didn't really know what to think and was very curious, but didn't want anything to do with touching anything.  I think Norah actually made her touch some part of the inside of the pumpkin, but then she wanted to wash her hands right away. :)  Here are some pictures from our fun. :)
