We have had a busy week! Monday, Jacob had preschool and I made cookies for his Wednesday class. Tuesday, we attended the library Halloween puppet show and we FINALLY carved our pumpkins. The boys scooped seeds and drew faces, I did the actual carving. As you can see, my favorite part is the squishy pumpkin guts-- the boys still don't want to touch them.
Then Wednesday was the marathon-- Jacob's preschool class in costumes, little presentation and potluck--one of the moms brought a huge pot of homemade tamales--Delish! Jake sang loud and although he was a little apprehensive at first, gave me big grins and did great. His teachers always have sweet things to say about him (I suppose being a little older, smart, cute as a button, and probably the only native English speaker doesn't hurt either-- I hope he picks up more espanol!) Then, that evening was chili cook-off and trunk-r-treat. I made spicy chicken tortilla soup, packed all the costumes, candy, decorations, and buckets and we headed off for 90 minutes of mayhem! It was a rushed but fun time. The kids loved it and were still back home and in bed on time. Whew!
