Pumpkin Carving

 We carved pumpkins the Monday before Halloween. I took the kids to our local pumpkin patch the day before it happened to close for the season (I'm super on top of things these days). They each picked out a pumpkin with a couple squash for good measure.
First we picked out the designs the kids wanted and taped them to the pumpkin. Then we cut the tops and gutted the insides of the pumpkin.
 Then Lucy started freaking out because she wanted to paint the pumpkin and couldn't see that Kevin was tracing the design. So she spent most of the carving process like this.
 Isak, however, gutted his pumpkin then I helped him carve it and he was quite happy with his result. Lucy was too once she realized that Kevin wasn't destroying her pumpkin.
