Sadly, this was our last family day before Halloween day. Jonathan is leaving tomorrow to travel for the week and won't be home until Halloween. So, we made sure to get our pumpkin carving completed today. We just did two big pumpkins and later in the week I'll let Katelynn decorate the smaller pumpkins with marker and different craft items. Another one of the great perks of living in the south is that we were actually able to carve them outside (without jackets) and avoid the mess in the house.
Katelynn really got into carving this year. She tried really hard to carve the pumpkin herself. She and Daddy drew an outline on her pumpkin to help her try to follow along with the carving. She wasn't very happy with us when we jumped in to help her, but it was needed at times.
Justin helped too some. He actually did understand to a certain degree how to pull the guts out with the scooper (picture at the top). But.. carving wasn't quite his thing yet. Instead he decided to try out the guts he pulled when no one was watching.
I'm not sure I'll get to posting it tonight, but we stuffed Justin in the other pumpkin that we don't show carved in any of these pictures! I'll post that picture later or tomorrow!
