We had a MILLION pumpkins to choose from to carve this year so boy did we ever!! They were slightly cold inside, but the girls didn't mind and we dug RIGHT in, it was awesome!
Everyone had their scoopers and scrapers and templates and tools. I bet we spent 3 hours in all working on these. After I had my pumpkin done, I started on sorting seeds and had a side-plan going...
The kids picked out their own stencils but couldn't get things scraped out fast enough! these were thick and took some scraping. They never ONCE offered to quit!
We did take a small pizza break in the middle, but they were right back on it and before we went to bed, they had the tea lights flickering in them and the girls were SO excited!
After they went to clean up, i went into the kitchen to whip up some pumpkin seeds and WHAT A HIT those were! the cinnamon sugar ones were gone before time to brush teeth and the savory ones eric bagged up for work--SCORE and free!
