Carving Pumpkins

 We have had a great few days to get out, and carve our pumpkins! This is the first year the boys have actually got in there, and dirty...but they thought it was kinda gross! Most of these pumpkins are Hayden's, that we started growing at the beginning of the summer.


 I got to make sure they were all clean, and then clean up, while Jeremy did the hard part of drawing them, and cutting them out. He did a great job, he is so creative!!
 Jonah and Dad with his pumpkin "Mike" from the movie Monster's Inc.
 Jeremy helped them find what they wanted on the computer, then just drew it...I don't know how he does it??
 Hayden with Dad, and "Mr. Big Mouth"
 Jaxon, Dad and Jaxon's ghost
 Jaxon's pumpkin
When Jeremy was carving them, we decorated these pumpkins with fun stuff we got from Grandma. It was a great way to pass the time, so they didn't bug Jer, plus it was something they could do without cutting themselves!
 Jonah's cat pumpkin
 Hayden's puppy pumpkin
The finished Ghost....
 and "Mike"...
and "Mr. Big Mouth", eating some other small pumpkins!
I think the boys were pretty impressed with Dad's work, I know I was!
 
 And they were happy with what they did!

 We kept these in the house

 And have these outside...didn't they turn out awesome??
 

 At school, the kindergarten class got to visit the shop class, and explore some pumpkins. They had to count some seeds, and clean the pumpkin out, saving some seeds to eat later!
 Hayden was really happy to work with JP, from Jeremy's basketball team!
 They worked pretty hard...
And had a BLAST!! Thanks JP!
