Pumpkin Carving

Preston is SO excited that there is something he can make a mess with in the middle of the kitchen!!

Each Halloween, Dave always handles the carving of the pumpkin. (The task is much too messy for me, plus I have no carving skills.) This year we're actually early by carving it 2 days before Halloween!!! I wish I had videoed the beginning, because our kids were hilarious! Preston watched very carefully as the top was taken off and didn't seem to understand why we cut it off . . .but was sure excited when he saw the seeds inside. Savannah was quite the messy scooper so we had seeds everywhere. The goal is to have an Ariel pumpkin so we'll see how it turns out.
