Tonight we carved pumpkins and it was fun! My husband gets really into it with the kids and every year does the best pumpkins! He creates them all himself, no stencils here! So here are some photos: My husband did the fish, the beach scene and a portrait of my son. Enjoy.
My middle daughter scooping out all the insides.
My son and husband working on my son's pumpkin. My son was stabbing the pumpkin like crazy from sheer delight that we gave him a pumpkin knife and let him stab something. He said he was giving the pumpkin belly buttons. Too Cute!!!
Oldest daughter concentrating really hard. Her's came out very cute, but non of the pictures of her pumpkin turned out well, so it won't be included. :(
More Belly Buttons!
A very fishy pumpkin! It's hard to see, but there are bubbles coming up from it's mouth.
The portrait of my son.
And the grand finale...The beach scene! Isn't this great! The chairs and palm tree and the shore line. I would have to say my husband is a pumpkin artist. The pictures of my pumpkin didn't turn out well either, so you'll just have to enjoy his. Hope you liked the pictures.

Haven't done any pumpkins in awhile, but we did paint some a few years back. I actually won a carving contest once. LOL It was a cat face :)
I saw a great idea on the Wyoming blog this week. Might have to do that with the kids! Anyway, it was nice of you to stop by my blog. Where in CO are you? You can email me through my profile page.
Blessings,
