Saturday afternoon it dawned on Ronnie and I that if we were going to carve pumpkins this year, we would have to purchase those pumpkins that day. So, Easton and Ronnie went off on a pumpkin adventure and brought back two pumpkins.
We sat down to carve them yesterday.
Easton was a lot more in to it this year. He chose the shapes of his face and insisted that we only make happy pumpkins.
Anyone who knows Easton knows that he has "issues" with some textures. This face exactly describes his feelings when Dad told him he had to help pull out the guts this year.
But he did it! And even fake smiled!
Kendree had no such issues with the texture. In fact, at one point she took a gigantic handful of pumpkin guts and then flung it in the air (getting them on the blinds, the floor, etc., etc. Next year, we will be gutting the pumpkins, then cleaning those remains away and THEN carving.
Happy daddy.
Kendree is starting to resist picture taking (something Easton has yet to do). This was one of about 15 pictures I have of her purposely NOT looking at me.
Easton and the finished products.
Kenny and her pumpkin.
And now, way more pictures than you care to see of the kids with the lit pumpkins outside, but they make me smile, so there.
