Pumpkin Party

It was a beautiful day with fall temperatures, a lovely breeze and sun shining through the trees. We loved that so many friends came to help us celebrate both of our birthday kids. I just can't believe that they are already four and six, it seems just like yesterday that I was dressing them in their special outfits to go home from the hospital for the first time. We started off with Benjamin's craft choice of filling pumpkin necklaces with orange and yellow sand, then proceeded to Tiffany's craft choice of painting ceramic pumpkin planters. We played a fun game of Ring the Pumpkin and gave everyone who tried homemade pumpkin necklaces. Then we ate pumpkin cake which I was surprised to learn was actually pretty good. Then we let the kids play at the park and cleaned up. When we got home, we opened our presents and got to hear a number of screams of joy at seeing their wonderful presents. It was a wonderful for all of us and especially the kids. Nothing makes me happier than knowing I was able to give them one wonderful day
