Halloween- Pumpkin Carving

Pumpkin carving is so much more fun with a kitten on your shoulders. He loves to be up on our shoulders, and perhaps it had a little bit to do with the fact that we tried to shove him inside one of the pumpkins for a photo. Maybe.

L-R (or bottom to top)- EJ's original stencil design, Birdy's Owl, Bear's original stencil design (cut out by Daddy).

DMP and I have started a tradition of carving our own masterpieces after the kids are done and in bed. Mine is the headless guy on the top step, his is the spooky bat-guy below.  Lots of fun to carve them now that the kids are getting older. Too bad they rot within a day or so!
