Connor seemed to be even more excited for the upcoming holidays this year.  He had reminded me to decorate our house early on and he helped me.  He also mentioned about wanting to carve pumpkins.  So I purchased one pumpkin for each of us and plus one more just in case.  However Connor managed to talk Stuart and Logan into joining us, and Stuart and Logan decided to tag team to do one pumpkin.  Stuart helped Logan initially but both boys picked up what needed to be done quickly after I showed them.  Logan got the job in good time and he did a very nice and clean carve.  Connor chose a more complexed design; I was so surprised that he did all the carving by himself and it came out perfect.  My skeleton turned out well too despite all of them jokingly did not believe I could get it done.  It was a fun family event and we love how they look outside our house now.
