A New Way to Pumpkin!

We all know how messy carving a pumpkin can be and with my kids still being so young it's not really interactive since they can't hold the knife. Although we still carve every year I wanted to try something new!

I painted a few of the pumpkins with chalkboard paint which I thought was fun since we can change the face every night or the kids can just scribble all over it. 

I also painted one gold, which the kids loved and now call it their "super special golden pumpkin."

Another idea... which could be a great hostess gift was painting a clay pot with chalkboard paint and decorating with fall foliage. 

Macaroni Frenzy in Turner's class

The necklaces were so popular in Hope's class that Turner requested I visit his. What a great morning with my best little buddy. Words can't describe how much I adore him!!!
