Pumpkin Carving 101

Yesterday my Daughter and I went out to pick out pumpkins, so we can carve them up for Halloween. Last year, we received as a gift a pumpkin carving set that included tools and stencils, but never had a chance to use them. After a full year of begging to use the kit, we finally broke it out, and let her go to town.

After drawing on the designs, my Daughter carved them out all by herself. We then cleaned up the mess, and roasted the pumpkin seeds to make us a great snack throughout the week.

When done, we saw the coolest pumpkins ever...

On the left is our "Bats Around the Moon" and on the right is our "Black Cat".
