BOOyah

I am all about carving a cool Jack-o-lantern...creating something funky from a gooey-ooey pumpkin! So, this year it turned into a pumpkin carving contest! All in good fun, it was who could finish the fastest, while creating something both festive and detailed! Bring it!
It was our team...

Against their team!

Getting down to the nitty gritty,

My husband even offered a helping hand,

This meant business...
it was getting down to the last few minutes,

The finished products are in!

I finished 1st...Booya!
That means 1 point for me and a super cool pumpkin!

However, Rob had a much more detailed pumpkin,
spookier too!

Rob won hands down....this year that is!
Let's just see what next year's contest brings!

All lit up!

Pumpkin carving is FUN...but let's not forget about our super-duper Spumpkinman that was created by the G-man!

FALL into Autumn

We've been loving these warm Autumn days filled with fabulously fun festivities! One of the coolest memories as littles, okay grown-ups too, is jumping into piles of fallen leaves!

These buds couldn't wait to jump into the Autumn piles!

It's about raking up the biggest pile possible!

And free-falling right smack dab into the bed of leaves!

Climbing trees happen to be another favorite!

Lazy FALL afternoons like this with good friends,
make for perfect weekends!

Boo at the Zoo, Apple Orchards, Pumpkin Pickin's, Treatville in Hershey, jumping in leaves...what's there not to love about this Autumn?!?!

And to think there's so much more to come!
