Perhaps they are early Thanksgiving decorations?!

Better late than never and I’m sure the kids would like to do this anytime!

Good Plan!! And you extended the holiday – letting them enjoy the traditions without cramming too much into the short time
They look quite busy at creating!!

OH my word…you are a much better mommy than I am.

Give my toddler paint???? At the table???? And a pumpkin??

My OCD trembles at the thought.

The things my kids miss out on due to my anal retentiveness.

I might have to loosen up a bit.

That looks like fun – and really, the kids are important thing here, so you’re a good mom for not forcing things on them just for the sake of tradition.

Besides, it looks like they were having a blast making memories, so who cares when it actually took place!

I love this idea! We didn’t do pumpkin carving this year, either. That’s just not something I want to tackle myself….I’m not a fan of ER visits in Germany! I think I’ll steal this idea though.

I love this quote from you “And while traditions are fun and important, sometimes you just gotta enjoy the moments you have instead of trying to cram more in. ” It is so important to enjoy moments with our children and I am so glad that you’ve made that your priority!
