Back to Work...

On Monday, we tried to get back into an after-school routine...without watching TV! Homework went well, reading books went better than expected, and then it was time for some real fun. I'm still debating about carving pumpkins this year but one of my favorite things to do is let the kids paint pumpkins. This year I bought fake pumpkins for them to paint so I can use them as decorations again next year. We also had a real pumpkin from the "patch" that we are going to use as the head for our homemade scarecrow. I'm sure everything will look extremely spoooooky when we are finished. :)
