Pumpkin Carving 2014

This was the first year that we actually carved pumpkins.  We've painted, put stickers on, & made "Mr Potato Head" Pumpkins in previous years; but today the kids got to touch the insides.
Reagan was not happy to put her hands in the pumpkin
 Cooper thought it was fun!
 Or, maybe it was a little gross!
 Look how disgusted Reagan is with the whole process (...and carving was her idea!)
 dad to the rescue...but still an unhappy face!

Happy Halloween!

 This was the first overnight camping trip for our scouts.  We had a lot of fun - hiking, crafting, cooking, playing and eating!!
 before the fun, camp must be cleaned!
