In past years, our family has skipped the whole carving pumpkins thing. Neither Justin nor I felt like doing it, and it's not as if the kids could actually do it themselves. Instead, we've had Mr. Potato Head Man-like face pieces that we have stuck in the pumpkins each October. This year, Ellie informed me that she had seen in a book that people actually carved pumpkins, and could we please try that out? So, carving pumpkins it was. Actually, it turned out okay and we didn't die or anything. Although Grant was totally grossed out by the guts and Ellie had to help him pull out his. Spencer got to color a pumpkin and didn't seem to notice that he was left out of the big fun. Each of the kids drew their own faces, and Ellie and Meg did a little cutting of their own.
