Fall Festival




We hosted a bunch of our good friends and their kiddos this weekend for a celebration of fall. We had a plethora of fall goodies, mulled cider, pumpkin pie, pumpkin and octoberfest beers...and of course pumpkin painting for about 12 kids under the age of 2.

Yes, you read that right. I will admit that my first idea was a pumpkin carving party...I even bought a bunch of kits. Then I looked at them a little closer and realized, maybe not so wise to give 2 year olds sharp knives..I know, I am an amazing parent.

So I switched to painting - but of course finger paint won't stick on pumpkins so I had to go with acrylic. I was prepared for a massive disaster, clouds of paint all over and parents irritated that everyone was coated in paint. But it was a resounding success!
