Pumpkin Carving FHE

My Dad decided to grow pumpkins this year and so the boys went to the Dunkley Patch to pick their Halloween pumpkins for FHE! My Dad has always had a HUGE garden and everything he grows seem to be delicious and massive--his pumpkins were no different. They were beautiful!


The boys paint their pumpkins, Dad carves his, and Mom takes pictures!! It's tradition!
I LOVE this picture of Reece! He's so dang handsome.

They are so cute!


I turned around and found both the boys on top of my Mom helping her carve her pumpkin.


Dad was proud of his spider. I would say it's pure talent--but lets be honest--the $5 dollar Walmart kit deserves half the credit!


We ended the night with a nice spiritual discussion about The Plan of Salvation. I haven't said anything to Reece about my friend passing away because it's his friends Mom; but his buddy was over at our house today while they were doing the interment and during our lunch prayer he said, "say something to my mom". He then told Reece that his mom was in heaven. It was heartbreaking to hear him talk about it. He's a tough and special kid. So, I decided it was time to tell Reece what happened. We told him tonight and then talked about the Plan of Salvation and how my friend was married in the temple and so they will be able to live together as a family for eternity. Spencer did a good job explaining things. I was impressed how much Reece & Benson already knew--but it was a good time to discuss some of the more important things in life.
