Pumpkin Carving

{I know, you all expected Christmas. Eventually I will be caught up.}

So, WAY back in October, we carved some pumpkins. A couple of the pumpkins we got from the pumpkin patch were all squishy and rotten, so some of the kids used some of the pumpkins from our garden. Here's the end result!
Jayden was the first one done. He told me he wanted some triangles, and a mouth, so that's what he got! It was kind of fun just doing a "normal" Jack-o-lantern.
Boy he's proud!


Spencer and Melissa were able to do their pumpkins from start to finish all by themselves.



Jenna was able to hollow out her pumpkin as well as poke the design onto her pumpkin, but she needed a little help when it came to the cutting.

Jayden's Jack-o-lantern (we couldn't fit the candle in and have the top on,
so it is just tilted to keep the flame lit).
