Carving pumpkins and Grandma Bonnie turns 43....Again!

Over the weekend we had our annual pumpkin carving contest at my mom and dad's house. This year the grand prize winner was Terri.... but only because I didn't feel well and decided not to carve a pumpkin this year.... I always win don't you know!!!! Anyway.... I just didn't have the drive to try and figure out something creative to carve and just didn't feel like it! Terri's pumpkin was pretty good and she did win fair and square! Mom also celebrated her birthday and she is only 43 this year.... she is always the same age as Terri.... you know... 43 instead of 63!!!!


Clinton working really hard on his pumpkin.... he did a great job.... I think there is some natural talent here.... I may have some real competition in a few years!!!


The kids watching grandma getting ready to blow out her candles.



Notice we didn't use all the candles... no worries about the smoke alarm going off... that is unless mom starts cooking.... that's usually how we know supper is about done on Thanksgiving!!!!
