Pumpkin Carving Time

With our crazy schedules during Halloween week, the only time we had to carve pumpkins for most of us was Thursday right after school. I hollowed out all of the pumpkins before they got home (except for Nolan who wanted to do his own) so we could get right to work on the fun part, carving! 

I helped Hudson with a few Mickey Mouse designs using some cookie cutters as templates and then let him have at it on the back of his pumpkin. He really enjoyed himself with that little knife!

Maylie designed and carved her very own pumpkin with lots of different shapes!

Landon worked hard on his trident pumpkin in honor of Percy Jackson, his costume this year!

After removing all his pumpkin guts and seeds, Nolan finished off his pumpkin with a traditional pumpkin face!

I also experimented this year with carving my pumpkin using different designs and drill bits. It was pretty cool looking in the dark, but probably needed bigger holes to be seen better!

Here are our finished masterpieces!!



That night we headed to the school's Trunk-or-Treat held at a nearby church. This was the only picture I got that night...Hudson sitting on his first motorcycle!
