Pumpkin Carving

She was so excited to carve pumpkins. 
 
     Since Ashlyn had collected so many pumpkins this year, this weekend we decided it was time to do some carving.  Joey was in Texas visiting his brother.  I asked Katy to come over and help.  We made sure to wait until Dawson was in bed to get started.  We picked some easy designs this year as well.  Katy and I were pretty impressed that we managed to get 4 pumpkins completely carved in under and hour!  Ashlyn couldn't really do a whole lot with the pumpkin carving, so she decided to paint a pumpkin.  I got out the paint and she just went to town.  It was very colorful.  The best part was lighting all the pumpkins and getting to see the finished product.  I couldn't get a good picture of the finished pumpkins with my camera, so I didn't post a picture of that. 




She liked looking at the "guts".

Sticking her hand it to see what she found.

Eew!  Gross and slimy!

She wanted her pumpkin to be colorful.

Look at all those colors.
