Traditions

Whereas I absolutely love family traditions, my husband thinks they are somewhat monotonous and boring... why not try something new? After all, life is short! I can definitely see where he is coming from, but I am still trying to warm him up to the idea that traditions are fun and exciting for kids!



All that to say, today we went to Michael's for the 2nd year in a row to decorate pumpkins. It's a fun event, and the pumpkins are only $5 including all the art supplies. What made it extra special is the fact that it's the first tradition that Allison has actually comprehended as a tradition.Natalie had a lot of fun, as well. Here are the results of their creative outting:
