Pumpkin carving party

What do you do the Monday before Halloween? Carve pumpkins of course. The perfect family night. We had my sister Megan and her husband Kenny join us. This is Meg with her creation-she's holding Jack who is trying to eat pumpkin. Yum.

Eliza had Kenny help her carve out a scary face. She was funny, she wanted him to make cheeks on it. Thanks Uncle Kenny.

Okay this is Aiden and Russell's masterpiece. We actually grew this pumpkin in our garden (my dad was disappointed to hear that we had planted pumpkins, but we still took some if his). Good job boys!

I carved this small pumpkin that our neighbor Brother Heaps found in his garden. Our vine snaked it's way over and produced two pumpkins. The other one was bigger. Eliza kept calling that little pumpkin Jack's, but it was really mine. :)

Megan wanted to come over because she likes digging guts out of the pumpkins, so why am I working on the biggest one? :) Jack had to be right where the action was. We are drying out some seeds tonight and we are going to roast them tomorrow. It was a great night. Thanks for coming over Megan and Kenny.

Oh if your wondering about the huge one we brought back from my dad's wonderful garden, we think we might tackle it tomorrow night. If we do I'll post the amazing pictures. We'll see how ambitious we feel.
