Pumpkin Carving

Friday night we decided it was time to carve our pumpkins!  Olive was so excited about this.  I made the mistake of letting her pick out a template for carving online and she picked "Mickey Mouse"...do you know how hard it is to carve teeny tiny little lines on Mickey's face on a pumpkin?! Seriously.
 Daddy got right to work cutting into the thickest pumpkin on the face of the planet.
 She was totally uninterested in helping scoop the goop.  Mommy always ends up with that job. 
 She was super excited to put tape on the back of the template and stick it to the pumpkin.

 Daddy got wise before cutting the next one and busted out the electric carving knife.  Good thinking Daddy!
 Suddenly, I look up from the intense carving of the Mickey Mouse face and I was the only one in the dining room working.  How did I get abandoned? Ha!
 She was back to see the finished product and she was pumped!
 Daddy worked really hard on pumpkin #3 using the drill and I love how it turned out!  Thanks Pinterest! Overall, they all turned out pretty cute and our porch looks really festive!


Happy Halloween!
