Every year we chose a night and do our “annual pumpkin carving night” as a family and I just know you’re holding your breath waiting to see it all!We picked our pumpkins, then the kids usually spend a lot of time picking what they want to do but this year because they are old and not as much fun they chose really quickly. All day I said “Heeeeeey…. Whaaaaaat are ya going to chose this year?” and they were all like “Heeeeeeeeeey, weeeeeee don’t know” and that was that. So when it came time for carving all of a sudden everyone needed to be online at once and it all happened so quickly, we all had a design and were headed out.
While they headed out the door and towards their pumpkins carrying sharp carving objects I made a big pot of hot chocolate and then met them on the porch.
It was fun, a night full of my kids, hot chocolate and lots of time together. The neighbor cat joined us and hung out while we laughed and talked. It’s nice to have time stop sometimes, to be together and to watch the kids interact and just be a family. So often, we get too busy running here and there- dance, football, friends…
But tonight… tonight my friends we sat together as a family and laughed and talked and enjoyed each other.
This is where it’s at y’all, this is where it’s at!
