Pumpkin Carving
By krmac | October 30, 2008
We got a late start at pumpkin carving this year, but nonetheless we pulled it off. Kacey and I started early in the morning then after Brady got home from school we did 2 more. I still have 2 more pumpkins to carve but I don’t know if my arms can take any more! The kids had fun cleaning out the slimey, stringy insides and retrieving the seeds for toasting tomorrow. I didn’t get any photos of them helping because I was elbow deep in pumpkin guts! I always look forward to carving them every year and it has become a tradition. I started carving pumpkins when Brady was almost 3 and have carved every year since then. We’ll see how my poor arms and hands feel in the morning, I may go ahead and carve the last 2. I usually carve one or two so it would be neat for me to say I carved 5 this year!!! We lit our carved pumpkins in the living room tonight, the kids were anxious (and me too!) to see them lit up. We are very proud of how they turned out. Here are a few pictures from tonight.
