Pumpkin Guts and Yummy Treats!!!


Pumpkin guts, grumpy faces, crazy boys, and treats all around....that pretty much sums up what this last Thursday was all about for us! The Watson kids were on fall break from school, so we decided to get in the Halloween spirit with some pumpkin carving and carmel apple dipping.
Who would ever think that a bunch of crazy little boys would think that pumpkin guts were soooo scary and disgusting (I'm sure Uncle Ross wasn't helping things). After some stuffing of little hands into nasty pumpkin guts, everyone got over the slimeyness and had a great time. Little Miss Jacque didn't need any convincing, she ran outside and dug in, that's one tough little lady!! Everyone picked out a scary or grumpy pumpkin face and we turned out some pretty cool "jack-o-lanterns"!!
Next came movie and carmel apple time with everyone picking a favorite candy to coat their apple with....the only thing was, the boys didn't seem to want to eat them when they were done building them!! I couldn't believe it, I really think Shauna has somehow brainwashed them into being super healthy kiddos! After a little prompting, they decided that the inside (the apple) was good for their bodies, so it must be ok to eat after all :)
I was told that on the drive home, every one of the boys fell fast asleep...totally worn out from a day of October/Halloween fun! Thanks for coming up and sharing a part of your Fall Break with us here in Park City!!
