Carving Time

Take 5 homegrown pumpkins, 2 kids, 2 parents and a bunch of knives and you have a good picture of how we spent our afternoon. This was the first year where we have let the girls go at it with knives themselves. Surprisingly, no blood was shed and fun was had. Hubby, of course, created his latest masterpiece while I helped the girls clean and carve their pumpkins. By the end of it, I had no creative ideas for my own pumpkin. We had one spare pumpkin that the girls wanted to turn into a disco ball. I made some snarky comment to Hubby about also carving rainbows, unicorns and stars into it since he was such an artist.

So, of course he did.

Pumpkins, grown with love
