Matt's Favorite Night
NOT! Tonight was jack-o-lantern night at our house, and now, thankfully, it's over! Every year I get the pumpkins cleaned out and ready to carve, then leave the honors of carving to Matt. There's something about working with a sharp knife in a room with three kids who are so excited they can't stand still that Matt doesn't like...hmmm. He always does a great job at the carving and this was the best year yet as far as him seeming like he was enjoying himself. This is just one of those things he does that shows how much he really loves his kids. Someday maybe the kids will be carving jack-o-lanterns with our grandchildren and suddenly realize how much it meant that their dad did this every year.

Matt,
You are the master! Those are wonderful pumpkin faces. I'm sure in years to come that the memories of scarey faces will outlive any grumpy feelings that might surface.

That is the awesomest pumpkin picture I have ever seen! I'm not a big fan of Halloween either. We forgot to get pumpkins this year:)
Nice pumpkins, Matt. Now just be thankful that one of the kids didn't push them off of the porch resulting in a pumpkin pieced together by toothpicks. Remember that, Mom?
Wish that we were around to share in some of the fall fun!
Love,
Mart
