Pumpkin Carving

We seemed to be so busy this week, we had to do the pumpkin carving in shifts. One day to design and hallow it out, and another to do the actual carving. And there was a couple of days in between them that we couldn't even work on it. Luckily it didn't start molding or anything meanwhile.

Emily wanted and owl and Caitlyn did a kitty cat head. You can tell that the girls picked out the designs this year. Plus, they managed to do it mostly on their own. Christian helped transfer their designs on their pumpkins and helped cut the tops open. Emily pretty much did the rest herself and Caitlyn needed a little help with the eyes and one of the ears which got  a little tweaked.

We were so busy, that I had kind of thought to just skip it this year, but the girls would have been so disappointed. We managed to get it done eventually though and now we get to enjoy the roasted pumpkin seeds too!
