Pumpkin party–October 2013

October brought another in-service day, so I decided to fulfill my quota and make it a play date for the girls. Zoe hosted Claire and Cassandra while Maggie hosted Nora. Given that it was late-ish October and all, I figured a pumpkin-painting party would be fun. Yes. I did pause a moment to check my sanity (five girls under 7 with lots of paint and paintbrushes), but there’s a few reasons we haven’t updated the kitchen and letting the girls do crafty things is one of them. They were all very well-behaved (the invited guests…Maggie…hmmm, well…) and I’m very glad we did it.
Only wish I’d gotten pix of the artists with their gourds!
