Gosh, I don’t remember the last time we carved a pumpkin before this weekend.

And I didn’t carve it! Steven did! I drew it for him though.

My mom asked if we could come to town for the family holiday photo, and my snis had already invited us to her pumpkin carving party, so this weekend made sense. Plus, it was my brother and aunt’s birthdays!

Me and my siblings

We drove in Friday, and hung out and had pizza with the fam (I was approached AGAIN in a pizza parking lot for a ride – it must be something about driving Steven’s car). There were games and a dance party after dinner.

Ella had on a cat top so I put on a cat top!

On Saturday we went to the Farmers Market, got donuts,

hung out, (I) painted, did the family photo,

hung out at the park (and drove RC cars), had dinner together, carved pumpkins, then went out to a bar (all the siblings).

I hang out with people to chat with them, so I really struggle in loud bars. I couldn’t hear much. Still fun though.

On Sunday I painted a bit again (the kids did crafts) then snis and I got Starbucks, we all ate breakfast, and we drove home. Short but good trip!

(We would have loved to fly there but it’s a big ask to reserve a plane for the whole weekend and since we just had two weekends ago we didn’t want to ask again.)
