1st halloween…..

6 Nov

pumpkin baby

this post is better late than never.

halloween creeped up on me faster than i was ready for it.

i  have sort of lost track of the days since baby matteo got here.

he couldn’t have come at a more perfect time though

because we do get to celebrate all the best “first” holidays!

^^^^^

i kind of slacked when it came to the costume part,

and painting pumpkins with a newborn

didn’t happen quite how i planned.

regardless, we had an awesome time

with family and friends and

it seems that we may have started a tradition over here,

pumpkin decorating at our house!

this was our second year hosting.

yay!!! i love new traditions.

^^^^^

so even though we didn’t have costumes and

our pumpkins didn’t get finished,

i’d say our first halloween with matteo was still a success!

hope you all had a safe and spook-tacular halloween!

(i know, that was really corny, lol!)

18 Oct

we had a little pumpkin party over here this past weekend. i went a little over board in the pumpkin purchasing department.i just couldn’t help myself, they were all staring me down at the store. and all those goodies you saw from the last post, i made for this party. (check them out here ) i also bought carving stencils, tools, and pumpkin gut scrappers, along with paint and brushes. i love getting family and friends together, and decorating pumpkins just made it feel a little more like the holidays!!

stay tuned….
