My little "Pumpkin Carvers"

We had such an AMAZING day today! My husband Ben came by the classroom today and spent the whole afternoon with us. He brought us a fall pumpkin and helped carve it for the kiddies! :) They all got to reach in and touch the "goo" after Ben cut the top off. They LOVED IT! He also let each of them take a turn scooping out the inside goodies which totally had them ALL kinds of excited. After we voted on the "look"....Ben carved it for us and then I had each of my babies sign their name because they all took part in the carving. I sent them all home with a seed from our pumpkin and a little poem that talked about planting a pumpkin seed. Tomorrow we are going to EAT pumpkin seeds (the sunflower-like ones!) :) I am SO thankful to have such a supportive husband. He is SUCH a great guy and my babies absolutely LOVE him! I think I might actually have some competition.... lol. "Mrs. Dodge, your husband is SO handsome!" :) I LOVE IT!!!!!
