Pumpkin Carving

We carved pumpkins for FHE this week. The boys really didn't like the gooey insides of the pumpkins. Maybe in a few years they will like the mess. Trevor's big nose pumpkin is named Dr. Pompo. It is patterned after a Halloween children's book from my collection. Leave it to Trevor to come up with a creative, fun project. They boys just loved Dr. Pompo. I helped TJ with his Dracula pumpkin and Russell with his ghost pumpkin. After TJ saw how cool Dad's pumpkin was he told me he wanted Dad to help him carve his pumpkin next year:)

Trevor tried to make a hole big enough so he could put the pumpkin over his head
