Today was the day we carved the pumpkins we got a few weeks back. Our little friends from across the street helped Mommy and Janie clean the slimy strings and pumpkin seeds out of the first pumpkin.
Later, Daddy carved the other pumpkin and Janie helped. Liam was not too interested in helping. :)
We are taking a poll. Which pumpkin turned out better? The left one or the right one?
We made pumpkin muffins and then read the kids "The Pumpkin Parable". We are making this a tradition. The "Pumpkin Parable" is a story about a loving farmer who turns a simple pumpkin into a glorious sight in the same way God's transforming love can fill each of our hearts with joy and light. It is a good way to share the good news with children each Harvest season.
The Pumpkin muffins were so simple. I got the idea off of Pinterest. All it is is a box of yellow cake mix mixed with 1 can of pumpkin. I added 1/2 a cup of water to make them softer. Bake them at 350 degrees for 25 minutes and voila.
I think my little pumpkins are all pumpkined out.
