Sunday was the day to carve the pumpkins. The kids began by cleaning them out. They are getting so much better at this and it is nice to not have to do all the dirty work. Then came time to carve. John and Sam hit the computer first to find their pattern. It was originally going to be Harry Potter but the printer wasn't cooperating so they decided on Angry Birds. Sam was so excited with his choice!
Ella and I were up next and I tried to steer her towards something that was a little easier. We decided on a cute kitten pattern and set about working on it. The carving was done by the adults and John worked on his and Sam's pumpkin for hours. He is a perfectionist and wanted it just right. He enjoyed it though and already has plans for a more challenging pumpkin next year.
The kids were very happy with how they turned out and so were we!
