Thirty Five

The other day we bought two pumpkins at Walmart. Mary thought we should carve the pumpkins with the kids today. So, we let them each pick out a design, and Mommy started carving. I got a little spooked by the big knife and decided to take the kids for a wagon ride down to the lake. The sun was down by the time we got there, but the lake still looked pretty cool. I think Robby and Ben had fun. Ben insisted he help push the wagon up the big hill on the way home. By the time we got home, Mary had finished carving Robby's super scary pumpkin. After dinner we lit up some more candles and celebrated my 35th birthday with some yummy chocolate mousse cake.
