Again, due to all the sickness flying around this park, we weren't able to do our usual pumpkin carving FHE that we usually do. We did manage to pick up pumpkins, but nobody had the energy to carve. Papa promised the kids while they were trick-or-treating that he'd carve with them after church the next day, so we headed up around dinner time, had a great meal and got to carving.
Our pumpkins were on the smallish side, so we had to settle for some simpler designs this year, but the end product was still great.
Lucy enjoyed being right in there with Papa the entire time, and Max came and went, as he usually does.
Lucy kept calling the innards slamon.
Not sure why. We had just eaten 'salmon' for dinner (actually halibut, but the kids already like salmon, so we stick with familiar names), but it looked nothing like the innards of a pumpkin. We have a "Jack Skellington" who my kids do not know, but it was an easy carve. Lucy kept telling me that it was the Joker...no matter how hard I tried to convince her. And then our cheerful ghost. Max's favorite part is blowing out the candles. I forgot to bring my camera with me, so we used Tyler's iphone. The pictures aren't as great, and the lighting makes it look like 1982, but it works. Thanks be to Papa for being the only one with energy this week.
I think this is the best pumpkin ever...it looks just like him!
