apples and pumpkins

We spent Friday evening at the local nature center-Marshy Point- doing an apples and pumpkins fall program. Our friend Wanda was the naturalist in charge and led a fun evening. It was a rainy night and this proved to be a fun time. Madeline stayed home from her haunted trial cause of the rain but she had a great time here.

The kids painted mini pumpkins- as many as they wanted- in bright colors . Ours will look so pretty on our window sills.All the way till Thanksgiving.




coring out some apples to make baked- or microwaved- apples. And chopping up a few to make blender applesauce.






trying the finished apple sauce -Shawn was happy just eating a plate of raisins.






This was such a fun way to spend a rainy fall evening, not many people came to the event but we had fun, with those who did.
