Pumpkin Time

Ascher was super excited to do pumpkins this year. And I was super excited when I found a great deal on pumpkins- and bought 1 for each of us! Immer took it one step further and even bought Lightning McQueen templates to carve into our pumpkins! So when I got home from work, they had both picked out their pictures and were ready to go!




Once we got started, Ascher got really hesitant. It was really difficult to get him to pull out the seeds. He didn't want to stick his hand in there at all! But once he got started, he didn't mind so much.

Then it was time to carve! Immer tried to do a template, but got really frustrated at how difficult and time consuming it was. So he ditched that idea, and just carved out a face. Ascher liked just poking holes in his, and it got kinda scary with him working with the tools! Once the boys were finished, Ascher helped me empty and carve mine. I think we did a pretty good job!

Immer thought mine was funny looking (far right)...but once they started to lose their shape in the warm weather, mine was the best looking one!
