Carving Pumpkins 2009

Carving pumpkins is always the best part of Halloween! Thanks to Harley's friend (Palmers) we got HUGE pumpkins this year! We got all our homework done and dinner out of the way so we could spend the FHE night carving.
Too bad for Hunter because the Chargers Football game was on and he was running back and forth from the kitchen to the TV. Hayden and Harley buckled down and got right to work. Hunter did not love the feel or smell of the pumpkin guts. He chose to pose for the pictures and let Dave do the dirty work! Ladies and Gentlemen: The President of the United States....

The pumpkins turned out really good. We put the candles in and lit them up. Dave handed the pumpkins to the kids in the dark with a lit candle in it. As you can see from the fear in their eyes, they did not appreciate this gesture.

When we turned out the lights....spooky and wonderful things appeared!

Happy Halloween!
