Guess what we did last night? I didn’t know until we had everything spread out on the counter that SD had never carved a pumpkin before! Ella knew we were doing something to our pumpkins, but she wasn’t quite sure what.
This is the face we got when we asked her to put her arm in the pumpkin guts. It was a no!
Daddy was a trooper. He cut the lids and scooped out all of the guts. I drew a face on one pumpkin and an “F” on the other and we each took one and got to work.
See the concentration on his face?
This is what we were left with. Guts, seeds, an “F” and a few matches.
But didn’t they turn out pretty? Ella pretty much refused to take a decent picture with the pumpkins and since she wouldn’t be still she’s out of focus in every one I snapped. Frustrating!
Either way, we had lots of fun and have two beautiful pumpkins to show for our hard work. I had every intention of putting them on the porch and lighting them at night, but we enjoyed watching them last night, so I’m thinking we’ll just keep them in the living room instead. Happy Halloween!
