The Homestead Journal ~ Week 99~ Carving Pumpkins

On the Homestead
We announced some big news on Thursday, check the previous blog post

I havent had much time or energy to blog this week, so here is our week in photos! 

We do not celebrate Halloween in the traditional sense 

( see blog post here)
But carving pumpkins is a part of our "art class"

The little's painted theirs 


 Urijah and Ezra's pumpkins

Olivia's pumpkin


We had a FB contest on this years carved pumpkins

Abigail won with 21 votes

Isaac and Jacob tied for 2nd place with 14 votes 


Quinten placed 3rd with his Christus and 13 votes


Zachary's cookie cutter frog placed 4th with 12 votes


and since we didn't want to waste any pumpkin, we had dessert too!
Quinten made the pie mix and the pie crust on the left, Zachary made his first pie crust on the right side photo. 



Abigail made some treats. She said they were good, grape jelly and hot coco filling. :/
They were cute, so I took her word for it and took a photo

Abigail is also into flower arranging. She loves to grow flowers, paint jars and arrange flowers
