Photo Dump

I'm trying to remember to share the photos I take with my phone. They may not be great quality, but they are still a moment in life that we enjoyed and I feel it's worth sharing.

Every Christmas, New Life Church puts on a live nativity scene. They have camels, goats, a donkey, and a cow. You drive up and tune your radio to an AM station that's telling the story of Christs birth. It has fast became a family tradition.

If those feet are any indication what walking will be like, we are in serious trouble.

When its cold and rainy outside, what's better then a swinging hammock inside?

Pumpkins, Fall leaves, Mouse and Cheese!

Carving the GREAT pumpkin and dressing up is what October is all about. Haylie had to have the biggest pumpkin she could find this year. Hers weighed a whopping 37 lbs.

Here's a little interesting fact about pumpkin carving; "Pumpkin carving goes back to an Irish tradition. In Irish folklore, a character called Stingy Jack tricks the devil to prevent going into hell. Unfortunately for Jack, he is too much of a sinner to go to heaven, so he is forced to roam the earth carrying a lantern made from a turnip (a lantern of Jack's, aka Jack o'Lantern). The Irish carved turnips for All Hallow's Eve. Immigrants to America, however, found pumpkins to be easier to come by and easier to carve, leading to the custom we enjoy today." ~ scratch magazine.
