Getting Ready for Halloween 2009


Halloween time is here once again. A few weeks ago we traveled to a local pumpkin patch to get a pumpkin and ended up with two.


I decided not to carve them until just before Halloween so they would stay nice, so last night was the big carving night. Daddy & Jordan were in charge of getting the "guts" out of them.

Jordan drew out on paper what he wanted his pumpkins to look like, I was then in charge of transferring that idea to the pumpkin. We of course had to have one happy pumpkin and on scary pumpkin. We then armed our 5 year old with a knife so that the carving could begin.....

He had strict instructions to NOT cut himself and he assured me that he would be very careful, which, in true Jordan fashion, he was!
The first few cuts took awhile until he got it all figured out.


His reaction to cutting through the first time.

The finished product!



HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE.


I will also be adding costume pictures later this weekend.
