Pumpkin Carving

We had a great family home evening carving pumpkins, well Mark actually did almost all of the carving. I did carve Miles' after he drew what he wanted. But Mark cleaned out all the junk inside and then went on to carve them all. It is really funny to watch my kids reaction to the stinky stuff inside. None of them wanted to even touch it. Jonathan wouldn't even try, he couldn't even get near it because of the stinky smell. The other two at least tried to dig out a few spoonfuls. Overall, we had a great time. I love this tradition and some day everyone will be able to carve their own and Mark can judge the carving!

You found something that disgusted your boys? That deserves a celebration!!

We still have our pumpkin sitting on the kitchen table, I think we're going to make into pies instead of carving it. I just can't be bothered now!
