We had some serious pumpkin fun in October. Wyatt kept begging me to buy "tiny pumpkins" every time we saw them at the store, so I finally did. Then the boys got out our large collection of sharpies and went to work designing the pumpkin art.
It was serious business. and they all made great decorations for the door step.
Next came the carving... We didn't get around to this until a couple of nights before Halloween, but it was a lot more fun than usual. This was mostly because in the past, all of the boys will draw some sort of complicated design on their pumpkin and then ask Caleb and I to cut it out. This never ends exactly like they seem to hope it will. This year, we got out the small carving knives and Henry and Gavin set to work carving their own pumpkins with just a little help from us on how to work in the new medium of pumpkin. It was awesome. Aside from scooping the seeds out, I got to sit back and watch the creative boys at work.
Thinking over his next move.
And the final project.
Caleb wasn't quite as lucky as me in his level of involvement, but I think he enjoyed making his creepy creation.
The finished products. They looked pretty awesome.
