Pumpkin Carving

The 4 of us got up this morning and decided it was time to carve pumpkins. Neil and the girls got the supplies out - as I came around the corner, I heard Neil promising a hammerhead to Sophi, saying, "sure, your Mom can do it!" The pressure was on...
We began...

Signe had 2 pumpkins and was very specific as to what she wanted too. We got the tops off and got the seeds out.

While Sophi gutted her pumpkin - I got to work on Signe's... she wanted diamond eyes, a heart nose and a scary mouth.

Neil got clever with to camera to capture a family shot.

How did I do with Sig's pumpkin #1?

Sophi waits patiently for her pumpkin to be done - she has now added another direction - she also wants RJD carved in the back!

Signe had a lot of fun with the pumpkin pieces and guts.

Neil was in charge of Signe's second pumpkin - she wanted a star, a butterfly, her initials and a spider (on a very small pumpkin)! He did it!!

The girls were very excited with the end results and couldn't wait to light them up on Halloween night!
