Pumpkin Carving

Yeah, you should be proud. I carved three pumpkins by myself! Well, I guess the kids helped :).
Normally you will not ever see me carving a pumpkin becuase it's dumb and it's hard and I don't really enjoy anything about it.
But, I felt inspired to be a good mom and support my kids in the fun of Halloween.
They drew the faces and I dutifully carved. Oh, and these are genuine home-grown pumpkins too! I made the girls go pick them while I fixed dinner. They were quite ingenious about how to get them picked and hauled into the house.
All in all, it wasn't sooo bad, considering it's the first pumpkin I've carved in about 6 years.
