Pumpkin Carving & Bowling

We decided that we were going to carve a pumpkin for family night this year and Houston was so excited. That morning Houston and I made a special trip to the store to find a pumpkin carving kit and then He and Josh went and picked out the perfect pumpkin.


Houston and I cleaned out the pumpkin guts and then Josh carved it with some assistance. It's a good thing that Josh has mad carving skills, because he picked out the most intricate pattern in the book.


Here is the finished project- "The Haunted Mummy"


With Josh's Wednesday through Saturday schedule right now, we have been able to have a lot of great family adventures. Our latest adventure was to take Houston to the local bowling alley. If we would have known how much fun he was going have, we would have taken him sooner.






He was so excited about his turn to go and trying to get strikes, that he would pick up his bowling ball anytime someone was in between turns. Towards the end of the game Josh and I were having so much fun watching him, that we let him play for us too.





Next time I think we may just pay for him to bowl by himself, it was so much fun!
