Pumpkin carving

We (meaning the kids) decided to carve our pumpkins today. We bought the pumpkins on Sunday from the church's pumpkin patch. We went on the back porch, in the beautiful weather, and got down to business.
Ellie seems to think that when I say, "say cheese", that means to strike some kind of exciting pose. Just in case you were wondering. :-)



Ellie chose her design (a cat face) from a book of designs we had last year. It was kind of hard since her pumpkin was small and thin. But it turned out OK.





Logan did his own design and I carved it for him. His pumpkin was big and like 3 inches thick! But it turned out pretty well.


After they were finished they both decided to "Autograph" them! Pretty funny!
