jack-o-laterns

Beings the boys had a day off from school we decided to get busy and carve jack-o-lanterns for the Halloween holiday. We nearly missed the big event...
As the boys slowy awoke this morning, I had them each go choose their favorite pumpkin from the fall decorations scattered outside around the house. It took a few attempts to find just the right one.
Have you ever scrapped the insides of a cold pumkin? It's hard on the fingers! I knew they needed to set inside for a bit and warm up. After lunch we got to work.
Below is a picture of the boys in action. This was the first year that I didn't have to assist too much. Well, except for the cleanup:) Why does that job ALWAYS get left for Mom?
Mom=clean up?


Oh well...
Happy Halloween!
