Last night for FHE we carved pumpkins. It is sad to admit, but I think we have only done this one other time before. The kids all had lots of fun and had to poke at the pumpkins with anything remotely sharp that they could find.
I was kind of grossed out by the guts inside the pumpkin and didn't enjoy cleaning it out, but the carving wasn't bad at all.
I was given a pumpkin carving kit with patterns and tools when I was pregnant with Bridger...needless to say it was the first time we had ever used it. It was pretty fun and exciting to see how the pumpkins looked all lit up.
When we took pictures we had to have the flash off to see the pumpkins lit up and you had to hold the camera still for about 1 or 2 seconds till the picture was done being taken. I apparently shake because my pictures all looked like they were haunted. Jay had the magic touch and was able to get some clear pictures. They turned out great...pumpkins and pictures.

Cute pumpkins!! I don't like cleaning out the guts either, I make Dustin do it for me. It is a family tradition that every year, Dustin's side of the family gets together and we all carve pumpkins. It is pretty fun, I think it will be mor fun when Bryson is old enough to enjoy it too!
the pumpkins turned out awesome!! We should get one of those cool carving kits. I'm really terrible at carving pumpkins.
Love your pumpkins, very cute!! I just saw that you only have 49 days left till you get to meet your baby girl, I'm so excited for you.
We didn't do pumpkins this year-ours molded last year before we could set it out. Maybe next year!
Also, when my flash is off, my pictures are all blurry, too. I need to pull out my manual to see how to make it work right.
