We love our church! And, not just because yesterday, following the morning service and Sunday school, there was an opportunity to carve pumpkins but because...oh, okay, that is one of the reasons we love our church! Our church always provides families with opportunities to take part in good fun with other church families and friends who attend and yesterday was one of those times. After the twins finished their Sunday school class, and after Mike and I had attended the morning worship service, we all joined together again to take part in the pumpkin carvings. Paige and Taylor picked out the pumpkin for our family, Mike had the honors of gutting the innards and pulling out all the seeds, and I pitched in with the face carving handiwork. Now, I know what I'm about to say here flies in the face of the spirit of humility, but can I just say that Martha Stewart's got absolutely nothing on us when it comes to carving pumpkin faces....

Let the carvings begin...
