Pumpkin Carving

For Halloween this year we got a pumpkin for everyone in the family. Two big ones for Mom and Dad, and three small ones for Amanda, Matthew, and Tyler. We each picked out our own pumpkins, at our local pumpkin patch (aka Kroger). Since no one and I do mean no one is brave enough to gut the pumpkins for carving, it falls to mommy to brave the orange squishyness.

Amanda wanted a princess pumpkin. I carved hers with a pretty smile and round eyes with eye lashes.

Matthew wanted a scary face on his pumpkin. Daddy carved his with fangs and mean eyes.

Tyler wanted nothing to do with the pumpkins. Mommy carved a silly face on his.

Daddy did an awesome Haunted house on his with a tree on the side and a moon and clouds. All free hand I might and NO pattern!! All the trick-or-treaters were impressed with the pumpkin.

Mommy carved out "Happy Halloween" with a witch on hers. I'm not sure about daddy but my hand sure hurts after all that carving!!
