I'm by no means a P*trest type of person...but a strike of ambition hit me on Halloween. Mom gave me a recipe for ghost pancakes from a magazine and I found a pumpkin latte recipe online and...the pumpkin latte was divine. Made me want to leap over tall buildings in a single bound. Coffee hasn't had that effect on me in a long time. E and I even tackled cleaning her whole room...under the bed and all. Oh, the joys of caffeine. The pumpkin pancakes on the other hand...the recipe didn't get saved, but the kids all enjoyed the whipped topping and chocolate chips. Guess they needed to get their sugar rush started early as well.
After school was finished, we finally got around to painting our pumpkins that have been waiting for over a month. They are pie pumpkins and so they wouldn't make great jack o' lanterns...but painting is more fun (and less work for me) anyway!

| C's was multi-colored in the beginning...by the end it was just kind of a blah yellowish tint |

| X wanted a red pumpkin...so he painted the entire thing red. |

| E designed a face. The green are the pumpkin's glasses. |
