Tonight Lauren and I hosted a pumpkin carving party. We invited Lauren's cousins and some of her friends over to carve pumpkins. It was a fun night. After the pumpkins were done and the was pizza was eaten we had the kids decorate cupcakes. It was a full night and they seemed to have fun.


My house is pretty small but I love have these kinds of parties. I think it is fun to have the kids over do an activity that is such a part of the Halloween fun. I also know that some parents really don't like doing this activity. I think it is pretty fun.
We have to keep our pumpkins inside until Halloween or they will rot. It is just too hot outside for them to keep for a week. So I get enjoy looking at them during the week and it makes excited for Halloween.
