Carving Pumpkins


(ewwww!)
Our friends had a Pumpkin Carving party on Saturday and a bunch of our friends came! It was so fun, and such a good idea: I've never been to a pumpkin carving party before. We had pizza and everyone brought pumpkin treats to share. Tom and Kristy did a really fun job, thanks guys for hosting it, and Ammon and Becky for letting us use your yard! Kristy picked out a very special design, just for Max, and he was so excited to do that one: Lightning McQueen, his hero! We scooped out all the guts, which I thought Max would really enjoy doing, as he likes to squish up his PB and J sandwiches, but to my dismay, no such luck. He had waay more fun playing in the dirt and eating cookies! (thus the face) So, we carved them out, mommy poked the holes for the design, and daddy executed. And he turned out sooo cute. Way better than the usual pumpkins that I've carved in the past!

Everyone's Jack-O-Lantern's turned out sooo good! I especially loved Kevin's on the far right...he made a 3-D guy...actually scary looking! Here's the line-up, AND...

...Here's Lightning! (isn't he fun!?!) I love it!

Happy Autumn!
