Our attempt to carve a pumpkin went a little better this year. Last year I made the mistake of doing it a week or so before Halloween, forgetting that I live in Texas, where we have very warm Halloweens. That pumpkin rotted pretty quickly. This year we waited, and thanks to a cool front (we don't actually get very many "cold fronts") I think this little guy will last just fine for a couple of days.
The boys remembered pulling out the pumpkin guts last year. I was a little surprised they were much more willing to do it this time around!
The big boys helped pick out the face I carved. Jensen liked him because of his "angry eyebrows."
The boys were also thrilled that I put an actual candle inside the pumpkin. Mason kept singing "Happy Birthday to You" when I was lighting it. :) Even though I did the vast majority of the work, I'm still glad that the boys had fun "helping" to carve our family pumpkin.

How cool is that that you get to carve your pumpkins outside. What an awesome thing!
