Happy Halloween Eve!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last night we had the annual family pumpkin carving party at my house. \u00a0There are only two words needed to describe this event: \u00a0fun mayhem. \u00a0<\/em>When my family gets together it is always mayhem. \u00a0BUT, it is absolutely fun mayhem. \u00a0Between the kids and the grown-ups who still act like kids… we always have a blast.<\/p>\n

It was a really enjoyable night. \u00a0For dinner my mom brought pulled pork with homemade barbecue sauce for pulled pork sandwiches and chips, and my sis-in-law brought taco soup! \u00a0Yum! \u00a0(Perfect fall menu!) \u00a0For dessert my mom made pumpkin cupcakes with pumpkin cream cheese frosting.<\/p>\n

After dinner we got to carving our pumpkins. \u00a0As you can imagine, things got messy. \u00a0But, once we lined up the finished masterpieces with tea-light candles inside, it was\u00a0all\u00a0<\/em>worth it. \u00a0Seriously, turning off all the lights to see the pumpkins a-glow is one of my highlights of Halloween.<\/p>\n

Here are some snapshots from the eventful evening!<\/p>\n

Such a fun time! \u00a0And now, my hubby and I are going to settle in and watch a Halloween movie to celebrate this Halloween Eve :)<\/p>\n

How did you decorate your pumpkins this year?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
