Pumpkin carving

I was pleasantly surprise a couple of days ago when I went to our supermarket, much like Wal-Mart, and they were selling a pumpkin very similar to the kind we carve in the US. Needless to say I bought that straight away! Tonight was the first night we had free in a while to get to that carving. So here are the pictures from the night, thanks to Tim!

Apple picking

We had a field trip to day to a local apple orchard. It was a lovely day! Another homeschool mom and I headed to the orchard with all our kids--7 kids and 2 stroller, loads of apples on the ground, bees buzzing round, horses and a cat! It was very fun! Here are some of the highlights!
