. there's a few things we do once a year at aunt sarah's .

. and carving pumpkins is one of them . although reed's ready to move onto ginger bread houses now, thankfully it's not very far away .

. this is a favorite tradition of mine, although i've only done it for what, like 3 years now .

. it's gooey and kinda gross .

. but it really doesn't bother me, i actually love picking out the seeds .

. the boys got into the gooey part too . and they loved the end result .

. jack .

. i had so much fun making jack with the boys, and since they were going to take it home i was feeling like we needed to do one for my place . so we did, or i did, ryan had to get back to his school work and reed was kinda over it by then .

. and probably my favorite part . the roasted seeds .

? have i mentioned i love fall ?
