Pumpkins and Parables

Last night we had a chance to carve pumpkins with the kids. It was so much fun, and I am happy to report that their where no injuries!

Isaiah has been studying parables in his Bible class this year so I thought it would be fun to read the story, "The Pumpkin Patch Parable" by Liz Curtis Higgs, to kids while we were carving. I love this story! It really gives you the picture of how important we are to God. I don't think that I will ever look at pumpkin quite the same way again.
More pumpkin pictures:
Isaiah~ he was very serious about drawing the face.

Lot of seeds....and lots of mess. For the grandmas~ yes Isaiah has a knife and yes he still has all of his fingers.

Putting a light inside...because we all need to let our lights shine! :)
