Carving the Pumpkin

This is the first time in a long time we have done anything other than our fall party for Halloween. This year we decided to get one pumpkin and carve it, and we let the kids get costumes and dress up and go trick or treating. It was sooo much fun!





We had the kids each draw a face on a piece of paper, then they all voted on which design was chosen. Ultimately, Morgan's design was chosen.



Since Morgan's won, he got to draw the face on the pumpkin.


Victoria really enjoyed getting to scoop the pumpkin seeds out of the pumpkin.


Christopher and Tori still working on the insides.


Boba Fett, aka Ben, stood watching. He didn't want to get his costume dirty.

We were able to get him to stand closer to Dad while Dad cut the face out.
FINALLY, he decided it'd be ok to help a little.


The guts. YUCK!
