Pumpkin Carving
The boys were super excited to go to the pumpkin patch and to carve pumpkins. We went on Saturday afternoon, which I guess was a little late because most of the good pumpkins were gone! We managed to find 4 decent ones. For some reason we thought we each needed to get one...WRONG!! We will remember this next year!!
The boys talked about carving the pumpkins all night Saturday and all morning on Sunday. Finally when we got home from Church and ate lunch, we were ready to carve. Well, we cut the lid off of Cole's pumpkin and he wouldn't even touch it!!! Didn't want to get his hands messy. Chase was the exact same way. So, Nick and I had to clean the insides out and get them ready to carve. We taped the patterns on the front and showed them what to do. Cole was over it in less than 30 seconds! He left the table and went in the other room!! So, I finished his pumpkin. Chase was a bit more into it. He poked out all of the holes in the pattern and then I helped him carve it out. I think he enjoyed it as long as he didn't have to touch it! Nick carved his pumpkin and it turned out really good. I'll have a picture of it in the next post. By the time those 3 were done, I decided not to carve mine. Cole drew on it and we were done! Lesson learned...1 pumpkin will probably do until they get a little older!!
