Pumpkin Carving

One evening we sat at the kitchen table as a family to carve pumpkins. I really, really wanted to take the kids to a pumpkin patch, rain or shine. But in the end, when we finally had a Saturday free of events, I was too tired. So we picked up a couple of pumpkins from Fred Meyers to go along with the 2 pumpkins the boys brought home from Mama Mickey's garden. For the most part, the boys cleaned and carved majority of their pumpkins themselves. Clifford carved ghosts, Kristjan carved a mummy, and Pete 'n I cared scary pumpkin faces. After we were done and sat our lighted pumpkins out on our patio, we pulled out our pull-out bed and watched a movie together.
