Pumpkins!


When I got back from an awesome church event tonight, I was greeted by two wonderfully carved pumpkins!

They are amazing! C and the girls did a great job! C said S put her hands in to get the guts out, but mostly because he told her it was part of the carving process.
She created the design of the pumpkin with the shocked expression. (Side note, a while ago, she drew a picture of what she wanted her pumpkin to look like. It's pretty close.)

He said she helped to carve out some of the areas and he did some of the detail and clean up work.

M did not want anything to do with scooping out the guts but did help to sort out the seeds, which are soaking right now to be toasted tomorrow! Yum!

M also did not do much of the carving, instead opting to give the pumpkin with a silly expression a few good pokes for character. :)



I was nearly in tears at how beautiful they are. C put votive candles inside them so they were glowing in the dark kitchen when I walked in. Awesome job!!
