Friday was a student holiday, so I took the day off and spent it with the boys. We went to Victoria, and started off at the Pumpkin Patch - we had fun taking pictures, and looking at all the different pumpkins - they each picked out a couple of pumpkins, and we were on our way. We then went shopping for costumes and just had fun looking at & playing with all the Halloween stuff at the stores. It also worked out to where we were able to have lunch with some friends, which was Great! We ended out day in Victoria with a trip to the park.
When we got the pumpkins, they gave each of the boys a little handout with coloring pages, and it had the following - I know I've seen emails with this before, but I wanted to share again.
Jack-O-Lantern Steps
Step 1: Pick a Pumpkin.
(God picks all of you!)
Step 2: Wash off any dirt.
(God washes away your sins.)
Step 3: Cut off the top & Scoop out the yucky stuff.
(God gives us scripture & the spirit to help us keep bad
stuff out of our lives.)
Step 4: Carve a smiling face.
(God gives us a reason to be happy & enjoy a life with purpose.)
Step 5: Put a candle in the pumpkin.
God becomes the light in our lives to shine for others to see.)
