There have been at least 10 new young couples that have moved into our ward over the last few months and I know none of them. I've really wanted to get to know them but just haven't had much opportunity. Remember, I'm in my own corner in primary. I was so excited to attend and get to know all these girls. The party was so much fun. And the pumpkins...well, see for yourself:
Pretty cool, huh?
Zooming in. How cool is the ET one. That was Tom & Kristy Haight's (the host's) pumpkin. Can you guess which one is ours? Here's a hint: Alexis picked it out.
I will gracefully give all the credit to my husband since he did all the carving. It turned out awesome despite my comments at her little head on a big dress when he shaved in her profile to far. Plus, he free handed her facial features because he had to improvise. Good job Chad. Just know that I would have still given you credit had you made her look really deformed. 
Carter liked sawing chunks of pumpkin off the lid. 
Alexis and Carter loved the swing and the attention from Emily. 
I made these fun cookies for the party. They are from Family Fun Magazine. Completely edible. 
Earlier in the week, I had plans to have my kids make these cookies for all the kids around their age in the apartment complex. But on whim, I had Alexis and Carter invite them all over to make their own. It was short but the kids liked it.
