we were all up for the challenge
of decorating pumpkins.
there were ribbons,
glue, glitter, and carving utensils.
this is grace's glitter girl but she got bored pretty quickly.
she is only 2 years old.
this is my beautiful daughter, esther and her little girl, grace.
ethan and canaan combined their skills.
a fun evening was had by all and newly decorated pumpkins were ready for displaying!

What a fun time !!
Really enjoyed your post.
You are very blessed to have your family all there at once and everyone participating. Good job was done by all.
Obviously everyone was having a great time! It's hard to tell who was having the best time though; all the family or Jade?
What a good idea, decorating as a group. I enjoy projects like that, watching everybody get creative while having fun;)

patsi, thanks for coming by. i am glad you enjoyed.
i am a very blessed mom and woman.it was great having my family all here and having my daughter and grand daughter from florida made it even more special.
everyone was having fun, it is great to watch my older children having kid like fun and helping the younger ones accomplish their creations. jade loves ALL the attention she was getting. around here that can be overwhelming.
marnie,
it is like the old one room school houses. the young inspiring the older and the older helping the young. i love it. my life has been like that. my oldest is 29 and youngest is 9, with 4 grands mixed in.
You are such a lovely fun family......tks for including me in your pumpkin moments......
Marmee,
You have the best family parties! What a wonderful tradition to have pumpkin decorating!

gail i love tradition and doing things the whole family can do together. we had a wonderful evening.
mt,
we all did enjoy even the big kids. i really love having family gatherings.
You guys must have had one heck of a bat up party! Oops-I mean bang up party:)
tina i think you were right the first time. bat up party!
It looks like your family had a FUN time!
I love the enamel pot as a planter. I have a pot almost exactly like that and I think I'll plant something in it. Did you drill drainage holes in the bottom?
I think you should use the garden gate as a "headboard", make "bed slats" out of wood and plant a bed of flowers See what I mean at the bottom of my blog!
we did have a great time.
the pot had rusted thru in small places but i would have drilled holes if it hadn't.
i love the idea for a bed with the gate as headboard. i am always looking for a bed (complete) for the garden but i don't want to pay a hefty price. i love your pink bed in the roses. is that in your backyard? thanks for coming by.
