(Sorry, the pumpkin guts must have gone to my brain!) :o)
Today was pumpkin carving day! Grandma Shirley and Aunt Amanda were here to help with the event.
First we had to have a plan of attack.

Then we got to work!

I left the "gutting" to the boys and grandma.

You can see our finish products below. Look closely and you will see the resemblance between Landen and his creation!

If you still follow the tradition of lighting your jack-o-lantern with a candle (and cutting off the top as opposed to the bottom), I do have a couple tips. I use a birthday candle. The flame is big enough to illuminate the pumpkin and it burns itself out. It will stick right into the bottom. Also, light a dry strand of spaghetti to get your flame to the candle waaayy down inside the pumpkin.
Happy Halloween!
Hi, Laura, Love the pictures. Here's what I do for the pumpkin. Don't cut out the top; cut out the bottom. Then you have a handle and can sit the pumpkin over a candle, christmas tree lights(look awesome if you get the blinking kind).
