Pumpkin Carving

It finally came time to carve our pumpkins. Ellison was very excited. As soon as I took off the top, she got pretty grossed out. ;-)

Ha! I love it. Her expression is the best... She wanted no part of digging her hands in to help me separate out the seeds. She did not want to touch any of the insides.
So Ellison got a big spoon with a very long handle to do her dirty work while Mommy carefully separated the seeds for the yummiest part of carving pumpkins - roasting pumpkin seeds.
Daddy had the grunt work of doing the actual carving.


Much to my disappointment, the camera ran out of batteries at this point. But Ellison got to claim a pumpkin, and Daddy had her draw the face on exactly how she wanted it to be carved. And he cut it out in the exact pattern she drew it - it turned out great! She did an awesome job. The pics would have to wait for tomorrow, though... (grrr)
