Carving Pumpkins

The Friday before Halloween the girls carved their pumpkins. We just picked them out at the grocery store and I must say we did a good job because they were pretty empty on the inside. I got a kick out of the girls insisting on wearing gloves to clean out the pumpkins... Just wait until we add a boy to the mix. It will be interesting to see if he's like his sisters or just all boy. :) I helped Rachel and Andy helped Audrey. Rachel was very adamant of how the pumpkin was to be carved (I think this was due to school and what a typical jack-o-lantern was supposed to look like).

Our pumpkins actually lasted about a week, which is pretty impossible here. But thanks to a bit of a cool down they didn't get moldy by day 3. The girls had fun lighting their pumpkins each evening on our front porch.
