Carved Some Pumpkins

by Shane Holden on October 26, 2009

This evening we spent some time carving some pumpkins for Halloween.  Alicia bought 8 and brought to the house over the weekend, and we just now found the time this afternoon to carve them.  This is the first time I’ve carved a pumpkin in years, and coincidentally is the best one that I’ve ever done.  It’s also the first one that I’ve ever printed out a design to follow rather than the traditional triangle eyes and partially toothless mouth.  Every one’s looked great, but we only had 3 candles tonight, so wasn’t able to get a picture of all of them carved.  My mom and dad even carved them one as well.
