Pumpkins!

Well we carved our pumpkins for FHE this past Monday.  I don’t know if they’ll last till Halloween, but we couldn’t wait!  We got a pumpkin for  each of us from my parents house.  They had a pretty good crop of pumpkins this year and Lucas loved picking them from the garden.

I did my own plus Lucas’ and Kryssi did hers and McKinley’s.  Kryssi’s first one didn’t work out, part of it broke off, so she had to throw that one away.  But the three we were successful with turned out really good, in my opinion.  Lucas wasn’t sure about it at first because I told him he could help me get the pumpkin guts out.  But once he saw the “guts” were just seeds and other slimey stuff, he helped out and liked it a lot.  But he got bored with the actual carving part and didn’t stay around until I light the candles.

On Kryssi's first pumpkin, she made the top hole way to small.  She could barely get her hand in to clean it out! Getting all the seeds out. Our three finished pumpkins.
