Pumpkin Carving

In recent years, we've refrained from cutting open our Halloween pumpkins, instead opting to having the kids color their pumpkins using special paint markers.

But this year, we spent the evening before Halloween doing a little traditional Halloween pumpkin carving.

We had one large pumpkin to carve, and a smaller white pumpkin that Zach picked out for himself.

While the kids scooped out the seeds out of thier pumpkins, Linda worked on a design to give the pumpkin the face of Pikachu (a Pokémon character), as specifically requested by Phoebe and Ben.

Zach chose a bat silhouette template from a pumpkin carving website for his white pumpkin, and transferred the template onto the pumpkin for me to cut.

That's fantastic! I love the Pikachu pumpkin, and the albino one looked very interesting.
