Pumpkin Carving

The kids were so excited about carving their pumpkins this year.
They all wanted to use stencils this year to make more complex carvings.
The results are outstanding!
Logan did the ghost....with about 90% help from dad.
Hunter did the headless horseman..........all on his own!
Kiersten did the spider.........all by herself!
I think the kids did a great job and they really exhibited a great deal of patience while carving their pumpkins with that much detail. And Logan showed patience by watching Justin carve his. Logan was just as excited about his pumpkin and that is all that matters. Way to go Kiersten!
What a team!
Hunter was just thrilled that there was a horse to carve in his pumpkin. He is becoming quite the little cowboy!
Look at the carving detail.........and the man holding his head up.........pretty spooky!
We got these pumpkins while on the Apple Annie's Field Trip. Before we rode the hayride to go select the best pumpkin Logan was running around playing and slipped. He took a pretty good fall to the ground and got a large goose egg on his forehead. So he picked a pumpkin with a bump on it just like he had on his forehead.
It was so cute!
Kiersten's was the hardest to carve I think. But man that girl has more determination then any other 10 year old I know!
Fantastic job!
Mr. Grant had fallen asleep so he missed out on pumpkin carving..........thank goodness!
