Pumpkin Carving

It's Fall, which means it's pumpkin carving time. Daddy and Jenna did a great job drawing, carving, and cleaning out the pumpkin. Here Drew's drawing the face on the pumpkin.

The finished drawing (I'm a little surprised he didn't use a compass and ruler to draw it on...it's the engineer in him. Hee hee!)

Carving - Jenna was very interested, can you tell?

The pumpkin is carved and now it's time to clean out the guts.

Jenna enjoyed cleaning out the pumpkin and kept saying, "YUCK" very loudly each time. It was hilarious! We have it on video, so if we ever figure out how post videos again, we'll have to post that one.

Jenna got tired of cleaning out the pumpkin, so while Daddy finished she got to draw on one of her own pumpkins. She of course loved drawing with markers (it was her first time), but it was a royal mess for Mommy to try to clean her hands and highchair tray.

This one's a little dark, but I was trying to get the full effect with the candle lit inside the pumpkin. She was very intrigued with the candle being in there.

The final product

Up next...trick-or-treating...
