Last week and weekend all wrapped into one....

By the time I got all the pics uploaded for this post I realized they are in reverse order...most recent first...oh well...too many pics and too late tonight to redo them....enjoy anyway.

So tonight was the annual pumpkin carving. We got some really nice pumpkins at Walters Pumpkin patch and it turned out they were good ones to work with.

Blake wasn't real excited about cleaning them out.

I told Brett that if he wanted to do the carving this year he was going to do the cleaning out too.

Carving the masterpiece.

Ta-Da!!

They turned out really cool I thought and weren't too bad to carve. Next year it's definately going to be a Powercat and/or G for Green Bay.

Last night we were at Gma and Gpa Albright's for the annual halloween party with the cousins. Marty's parents used to do a party for him and his siblings when they were little and the tradition continues with the grandkids. Normally they do a weenie roast and hayrack ride but it was windy and cold so that was done earlier in the day while we were at the KSU game. However there was also bobbing for apples and a pinata in the basement.

Brett bobbing. Blake didn't want to do it this year.

My gangster and clown. Blake is wearing the clown outfit his dad and uncle scott wore when they were little. My niece Karlie wore it last year so Blake's the last one to wear until there's a new grandbaby....hint hint Kay and Trent.

Saturday was KSU football. My niece Emily really wanted to go to a game this year so we decided to send Blake to the farm to stay with Papa, Gma and Karlie and give Em his ticket. Her parents also ended up with tickets so we all got to go together. It was a fun day even with the result of the game, I'm still proud to be a Wildcat. The weather was beautiful, the tailgate food was excellent and the company was awesome.

Friday was Brett's Halloween Party at school. Blake and I brought our share of 25 "mummy hot dogs" as part the snack. It was quite a party as there are 25 kids in a total of 3 3rd grade classes. However it seemed to run pretty smoothly as the kids rotated to each classroom and played games, ate and played more games.

Last but not least....Blake's class got to go to a pumpkin patch on Wednesday. I volunteered to be a driver and took 4 kids with me. They listened to a couple of stories, got a pumpkin painted on their cheek, walked thru the "patch" and looked at all the different types of pumpkins and then got to pick a pumpkin to take home.

It was a busy week and this week seems to be just as busy. Hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween.
