Pumpkin Carving 2013

A few days before Halloween, we carved pumpkins.  Despite all the rain we had this summer, we were able to harvest quite a few pumpkins from our garden before they rotted, and some of them lasted long enough to carve. 

First, the kids each picked out a pumpkin.

Then they each drew a picture of what they wanted their jack-o-lantern to look like.

Carving time!

The kids loved to watch their pumpkins being carved.

Joseph dug out the goo and seeds.

Anthony had to go shirtless to work on his!

The final result!

Each creator under his or her jack-o-lantern.

Scary!
