Pumpkin Carving

We always carve our pumpkins the night before Halloween. . .So that was today. . .Mrs. Fuller gave us the biggest one that we have. It was part of the decoration at the Fall Family Night, so she let us have it after the event. That made us only have to get 2 more. . .Cade was sick today and had to stay home from school, so we were just lucky to have him feeling good enough to participate. . . Ian had play practice until 8 pm, so we didn't even get started until almost 9. . . That is the story of our lives. .always pushing things to get them done on time. . . . Anyway, this was the first year that we actually let each kid do their OWN. . .(I did help Cade), but Ian and Macey did the entire thing by themselves. Macey was not too keen on the cleaning the pumpkin out part, but she did it anyway. . .She kept on saying how gross it was, ect. Ian was a pro! He took off and did the entire thing , designing his, cleaning, carving, and lighting his candle. . . We ended up not getting the kids to bed before 10:30. . . on a school night. . .Oh well, it was worth it. . They had a great time. . . Thought I would share a few pics from the night. . .
