Later, Daddy carved the other pumpkin and Janie helped. Liam was not too interested in helping. :)
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.
