Pumpkin Carving 2009

Pumpkin carving was absolutely hilarious this year! We started out by giving the boys markers to color on their little pumpkins and thought we'd carve the big ones (with Hayden helping). Well we have never given Austin a marker before and there's definitely a reason why...lets just say he enjoyed decorating his face than the pumpkins face! All it took was one swipe on accident onto his face and he felt it so he kept doing it, until his whole side of his face was green. We couldn't stop laughing as he did it cause he was so serious looking. We decided to then bathe him and put him to bed and finish the carving with Hayden. Ended up carving all 4 pumpkins, even the 2 tiny ones. Hayden had a blast. Last year he didn't want to touch the gooey insides but this year he dug right in. He was super excited to put candles in them and put them on the porch. I love it! Holidays are so much fun when you have kids and they are old enough to get excited. So here's some pics from our carving night. Hayden's school Halloween party is Thursday and I can't wait! Pics will be up soon of that!


Hayden is excited!
He never says cheese and he wouldn't stop posing for pics this night!
Boys all ready to go
Started out pretty clean with just a bit of marker on his mouth from putting the colored pumpkin in his mouth...

More! This is the look he gave me when I said "Austin...what are you doing?"
