Pumpkin Carving

Normally we carve pumpkins the minute October is here, but for some reason this year we were extra busy. So we FINALLY did them today.

Paige was so happy, it was the first year we let her do some of the actual carving of her pumpkin. She drew the face, and did almost all of the eyes, and Jess finished the mouth for her.
It was the first year Cason drew his face himself, and I cut it for him. He drew 4 eyes and a little mouth. He was happy with it, and told me his pumpkin was "thinking", because of how his mouth was sort of pursed over to the side.
Neely cruised around, trying to invent new stunts to scare us with.
She also ended up with a pumpkin sticker on her bootie.
Paige impressed us with her memory yet again, reminding us of how we carved our pumpkins last year. She reminded Jess his had one star eye last year, so he kept up the tradition.
And here's the family, minus Neely, since she's not of carving age. Although I may have to pick up a little one tomorrow, because it feels wrong to leave her out.

They all look awesome! We have one carved and one gutted. Some how we just haven't had time to do it all at once :)

Thanks Sarah! Haha, you guys are funny. I have total tunnel vision, I can't start something and not finish it. (Usually I solve that by never starting anything, haha.)

Alex and Faith, you're COMMENTING! You should start a sister blog now.
