Pumpkin carving night!















It's been awhile since my last post. So I thought I'd get you up to date on the happenings at the Olin Homestead. We've been plugging away over here. Emma enjoying her "second round" of preschool. There are more students in her class this time. She enjoys the social part of it, I believe :) Uh oh-I wonder where she gets THAT from!? Certainly her father ;) ;)

Katelyn is getting over a pretty bad ear infection. She is such a trooper and only let it bother her for one night. One very, very long night :) She is much better! Praise the Lord for this minor thing-it could be so much worse. He is an amazing Father. He heals our "boo boos" all the time.

We went to a neighbors Halloween party the other night. Met some new neighbors, and hung out with Dave's sister,Holly, and her fiance, Joe. They are acquaintances of our neighbors as well.

I had so much to write about what all we've been up to-but at this very moment-I can't think of a darn thing. So I'll leave you to some pictures of our annual pumpkin carving night at my Mom's. We've been doing this for over 11 years now! Heather was pregnant with my nephew,Jacob, when I remember the first time. It could've been sooner-but of course, I don't remember. We always have fun and it's so neat to see what everyone comes up with. Watching Jacob and Tim throughout the years has been so cool. They have gone from getting help to not wanting help. (Although they still get it:) ) Now, Emma and Kate are enjoying it,too. They just want to stab the pumpkin at this point. :)
This year, Kate has Bob the Tomato. Emma has a Happy face, Dave has the "Halo 3" logo, and mine is a happy face as well. THe pic that I took of all the pumpkins didn't turn out that great. Ted will send me his pics and I"ll update when I get them.

Enjoy Trick or Treat this wednesday to all the church skippers out there! :)
