Halloween prep

This evening we finally carved two of our pumpkins. As you can tell from Chay's picture, that initial handful of pumpkin guts is "yucky".

Blade looked inside his pumpkin and was hesitant to put his hand in and clean it out but, once I started and he saw that it was okay, he loved it and took great pride in getting all the seeds out.

And it was just natural to try out the 'jack o lantern's' mouth....

Blade wanted a "scary" face and posed the way he wanted the face to look and this was how his pumpkin turned out.

Chay did a great job on his pumpkin, I like how the eyes even have pupils.

...My boys...

This evening I also had a meeting with the Bishop, which is never a welcoming thing, (sorry Doug) and accepted the calling to be the Valiant B teacher in Primary. It was such a relief to hear " teach the Valiant B class", since there are many callings that I am not capable of doing, that I instantly accepted the calling with a smile. I haven't had a calling in Primary for many years, and when I did, it was for a short period only, and so this will be quite the adventure. However, Chay wants me to tell the Bishop "no", because he is in the Valiant B class and he thinks it would be "weird" for me to be his teacher and maybe because I told him that it is unlikely that I will take them to go play "laser tag" like their previous teacher, whom he has had for two years.

Well, tomorrow is Halloween, and if the weather continues as it has been, it will be a very nice night to go trick or treating. I may wear a light jacket...maybe not. I need Brylie and Tyken out here so that they can go trick or treating with Blade!
