Annual Pumpkin Carving










The time honored tradition of trying to get our children to kill a pumpkin every year is revered at our house. Not only because it tests the strength of our stomachs, but because Bryon unveils his more violent side.



Ethen's hand is only gently resting on the top. He refused to grab any guts. He tried it once and all of the sudden told me that his stomach hurt. He was this way last year too.

I am really worried about this one.

Sam thought it was a blast. He didn't touch the guts either, but enjoyed mom getting his ready.
YUMMMM

The finished products. Ethen sure looks proud considering I did all the work for him. Which is why I didn't carve one for myself.
Sam was so excited about his "little one pumpkin". He was done before everyone else and kept running outside to look at it. He turned it around so he could see the scary face from the couch inside.

Then there was a light inside too! He was at an all time high. We laughed for a long time about how much he loved his little one pumpkin. He wasn't too happy when we told him he couldn't take it into his bed that night.
