Halloween Eve

just popping in real quick to say Happy Halloween Eve!

a few years ago, we decided on this alternative to pumpkin carving for a few reasons.  one…the “guts” of the pumpkins make both me and the Boy gag big time.  two…this way, we can enjoy our pumpkins well into November and even sometimes up until Thanksgiving.  three…its just plain easier!  four…i think they are pretty darn cute!

you can see this link here for the specifics and printables on our pumpkins.

and…i’m finally finishing up the last touches on the Halloween costumes.  here’s one:

 any guesses?  i’ll give you the full rundown after tomorrow’s festivities!

and, just to update you….this blog transfer has been more of a headache than i anticipated….but i’m almost there.  if you are an RSS subscribers, your readers should be working now…which means you shouldn’t have to re-subscribe to my posts!  but will you pray for the final detail for me (which is a big one!  Pinterest has disabled all the things from my blogger blog that my readers have pinned in the past before this switch because they automatically redirect to my new site, and apparently that tags them as unsafe.  i’m anxiously waiting for them to get back to me and hopefully fix it, because so many of you wonderful peeps have come my way from their site!  it would really affect my blog if it isn’t fixed, but its totally out of my control…which is honestly really hard for me) so once that is taken care of, i feel like i’ll officially be done with this transfer, and things can get back to normal!  thanks for being patient!  after Halloween, i’ve got a whole series i’m planning…Photography 101 for Mommas, from a Momma…i’m excited about it!

for now, Jake and I are off to make some pumpkin whoopie pies with 22 Kindergardeners…this should be FUN!

Happy Halloween!
