Pumpkin Carving!

Well...sad to say this is the first year we have not gone to the pumpkin patch as a family to get our pumpkins! I'm not sure how October has flown by so quickly..but it has ...and it's nearly gone! I was home sick and thought there was no time better to get our Carve on!No...we don't always let our girls sit on the table :) Aren't they cute though. we told them they had to change into play clothes for carving. Hana put on a t-shirt and tights!

Hana, although very strong and brute like at times, is very dainty when it comes to scooping out the guts! Mak on the other hand...

Not so much! Mak got after it!

Here is Kiko trying to get in on the action!

The finished products!

Maks on the left..Hana's in the middle..and mine on the right and down below. And Kiko again..trying to figure out what I'm doing.

BOO!!!
Happy Hallo-Harvest!
(Thought I would combine them as to not offend anyone) :)
P.S. Since we had both white pumpkins and orange ones..we did a bake off to see which pumpkins made the best roasted seeds! With Hana at my side and Makayla at school we rinsed and buttered and seasoned and separated and cooked! The winner is.... ORANGE!
The white was just too sweet..and the Orange was nice and toasty tasting!

Super cute pumpkins! I was going to comment on Hana's outfit, but you explained it nicely! Your pumpkin was so cute! Mine last year was all cute and symetrical. We have yet to carve our pumpkins........ we'll see if we do it or not! maybe I'll just bake some pumpkin pies instead.
