Pumpkin Carving


Today with two days left before October 31st , I decided it was time to get going on this "Halloween stuff". While grocery shopping, although not the ideal place to purchase, I bought our family's pumpkin.

Although Shayna was not with me when I bought it, she was delighted about the idea of pumpkin carving tonight.

The pumpkin carving kit came with a CD of very intricate and unique designs for carving the pumpkin. Immediately, she hopped on her laptop looking for the BEST creation to carve. After about an hour of debating, "we" (notice that is "we" not "I") choose to go with the traditional pumpkin carving. After about 15 minutes of carving, I think she was personally glad that she went with "mom's choice" !

This is the FIRST pumpkin that she did 100 % on her own. We are so excited to light the candle in it on Halloween Night.

Maybe now that we have some "Halloween Spirit" we will ACTUALLY get to a pumpkin farm for the fall festival in the next 48 hours !!!
