Pumpkin Carving

We had carving pumpkins with the kids. The year Derek, Caty, and Nathan were in town so they got to join in on the fun too!
It was serious business de-gutting all these pumpkins.
 
 Even the littlest ones wanted to join in on the fun.
 Brian did a fantastic job supervising the whole process.
This year most of the kids free-handed their own jack-o-lantern faces which made everything go much faster then in the past.

The little ones enjoyed playing in the backyard while everyone else was carving their pumpkins.
 
And some of the finished jack-o-lanterns....
When I dragged Austin off his electronics to carve pumpkins he responded with "awe...carving pumpkins is so boring." Yet he chose to pick a more time consuming pattern to put on his pumpkin and didn't complain the whole time while he was doing his pumpkin. Ha!

Everyone brought yummy Halloween themed food.  We had everything from mummy dogs, pumpkin poo ( cheese balls), spider donuts, jack-o-lantern oranges, ghost string cheese, dirt pudding, caramel apples, rice crispy pumpkins, fun drinks, and a few more treats.
Eating our yummy Halloween dinner!
