Pumpkin Carving

This past weekend I collected my sunflower heads so that I can get the seeds for next spring. Lotus and I finished our Halloween craft project. I went to the Tacoma Holiday Show with Kati and then we finished the weekend with some pumpkin carving.


One of my sunflower heads was huge! Lotus got a kick out of this so I had to take a picture.

Lotus and I started this project about a month ago and we needed to finish them before Halloween. I was very pleased with how they turned out and it was a lot of fun!

My friend Kati just had to try one of these out at the Tacoma Holiday Show. We decided we need to get one of these next year.

Pumpkin carving time, Lotus was ready to get to this all morning.

Hunter's first year doing his own, he wasn't too sure about the slimy insides.

But he did it and once he got into it there was no holding back.

Hunter is still talking about all the "guts" of the pumpkins he just kept saying, "eeewww".

Hunter's finished pumpkin, he specifically wanted a smiling pumpkin face :) I love that he is getting his own ideas and is not afraid to voice them.

Sean getting started on his, Lotus finishing hers and Hunter was helping everybody.

I forget what I had to say to get her to smile but it was something bizarre.

Hunter helping pull the "guts" out of my pumpkin.

Lotus' finished bat.

Brayden got up from his nap and all boy that he is he dug right in.

He was very fascinated by all of this.

I loved watching him explore the leftovers of the pumpkins.

Our finished masterpieces. My owl, Hunter's happy face, Sean's Jeep and Lotus' bat. Now the countdown is on for trick or treating!
