Friday October 28th we gathered at my parents' house to participate in the annual pumpkin carving event. I never really look forward to carving pumpkins. The yucky guts get all under your fingernails and turn them orange, it gets stuck to your skin and makes your hands and arms all itchy. Blech! However, I didn't want to miss out on an evening of pumpkin carving (yes, I know I'm slightly difficult). Travis and I spent the evening with my parents, Emma, and her friend, Ashley. We had a lot of fun together and ended up with some great pumpkins.

Ashley came with this crazy pumpkin all covered in warts. When she went to cut into it she couldn't get the knife all the way in. So, we passed the crazy thick pumpkin to Dad. When the first knife didn't work, he went for a bigger one. We all found this particular pose fascinating.... And slightly frightening.
Dad's pumpkin and Mom's simple "special" pumpkin. We decided it looked like David from all the "David" picture books.
I believe we were having a "discussion" about something, but I can't remember what it was.
All 6 pumpkins: Travis', Emma's, mine (SO cute), Dad's, Mom's, and Ashley's

I use an ice cream scoop to gut the pumpkin and it totally saves my fingers! Your pumpkin is super cute; I love the flower! Adorable. Also, I have to share that I have that same basket full of shoes by my door!
