We managed to get a little Halloween fun in lately. On Mei Li's due date, October 14th, we went to a corn maze and pumpkin farm with Sarah, Katie, and Frannie.
We let Abe lead us through the corn maze. That is, until he kept getting us lost by having us walk in circles. Then the adults took over
We didn't pick out a pumpkin because we grew our own. But Frannie got some.
There were quite a lot of pumpkins out. I guess that's what happens when you go in the middle of October as opposed to the end, like we've done in years past.
We did some pumpkin carving with Grandpa Gung Gung at our house on Friday. We had to go to the internet to get some ideas to carve
On Sunday afternoon Abe carved some pumpkins with Grandpa David. He got to use a power drill to poke holes on the outside of a starfish. Here Grandpa David is scraping off part of the starfish. Abe looks very focused.
We still had Mei Li's pumpkin to carve on Sunday afternoon after we got home. Abe liked using the drill at Grandpa David's and Grandma Diane's, so we just poked Mei Li's pumpkin full of them.
Drill baby, Drill!!! It sure is tough to get pumpkin goop out of drills though.
Abe had school on Halloween. He was very excited to dress up as a firefighter. He always needs to watch Mei Li get dressed before he leaves for the day. And today he wanted to hold her for a little bit before we left. Such a good older brother!
