We hosted a BYOP party at our house today... Bring Your Own PUMPKIN!!! We are lucky to have so many kids in our neighborhood around the same age as Taylor. We invited our awesome neighbors and some of our good friends to come over and join in the fun of carving and decorating pumpkins. We lucked out with the weather, it was a beautiful, sunny, 70 degree, October day. In addition to the regular pumpkin carving tools we also had corn syrup paint (corn syrup and food coloring), and decorations for the kids to decorate with. We had a great turnout and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves! The kids loved the snacks of course and us adults enjoyed the company of each other.
Kevin and Kendra brought their precious twin girls, Avery and Addison. They are the cutest, blue-eyed family. So lucky to have these folks as neighbors!
Jose and Charnese brought their sweet boy, Jaden, over to join in the fun. Jaden enjoyed carving the pumpkin and painting it. He was very proud of his finished product!
My neices, Kymbra and Kylar, joined in the fun today as well. Can you believe that neither one of them had never carved a pumpkin?! I couldn't either! Well, I'm happy to report that they have now had the experience! They both tooking carving their pumpkin seriously. They did a pretty darn good job, too!
Our neighbors Derek and Sarah brought their handsome baby boy, Cannon, down to join in the fun. Cannon is one of the most fun, most full of life, kids I've ever met! He had a blast today running all over the place and taking it all in. What a beautiful little family they have!
Our good friend Paula brought her three kids, Haley, Lily, and Ian over but my hands must have been too busy, I didn't get any pictures of them or their sweet momma! Leah and her mom, Amanda, were here for a while. Taylor and Leah worked on a pumpkin together. Taylor loves to paint! She loved painting with the corn syrup. By the time she was finished, she was COVERED in a sticky mess. Thankfully for me, it was Daddy's bath night!! :)
Today was a great day! Below is a picture of the finished products, minus a few. BYOP may have to be a yearly thing around here. Happy Halloween yall!
