Jakub helped carved pumpkin for the first time today! He wasn't so sure about touching the yucky inside goop, but he did enjoy playing with the spoon and drawing "hair" on the pumpkins! Slawek's pumpkin was much more creative than mine...he is a true pumpkin artiste! Nana also joined us for the festivities, but almost ruined Halloween when she pulled the stem off of one of the pumpkins! :)
Not so sure of the goop...
We had loads of fun this weekend with a visit from Jay and Liz! We also had visits from Uncle Tim, Aunt Barb, Melissa, Andy, Jack and Madeline on Saturday and from Aunt Ag and Marilyn on Sunday! It was a packed weekend! Lots of fun and beautiful fall colors to match. It was great seeing everyone!

Yesterday we made the trip out to Pumpkinville, near Ellicottville, NY. It was a crazy place! In the middle of nowhere, all of the sudden there are 100s of cars parked in the muddiest field around. Yes, we did get the new car stuck in the mud! Anyway, Jakub had a blast running around playing with the pumpkins, watching the animals, eating donuts and carmel apple slices and, of course, playing with the pumpkin wheelbarrows! That was his favorite! He couldn't walk by one without trying to push it. Actually, it was more like any one he saw he had to bee-line it straight for it and whined when we had to take it away from him. Here are some shots of the day.
He just couldn't let a wheelbarrow opportunity go by!
Dada and Jakub watch the goats!
We had a very eventful day today in Michigan! We visited the Skanska office in Southfield before we went to lunch with Aunt Jenn...so that was fun. We then went to the Detroit Zoo with our friends Laila and Ava (and their mommy, Miea). Here are a few tries at a group photo...
We had a fun day and zonked out by 7pm!
