Pumkins are gross inside

We carved our pumpkins tonight and Abby officially named them all "Jack". Aidan and Abby got to pick a face for their little pumpkins they got at the pumpkin patch. Abby said, "I want a mean face!" so I did my best. Michael picked out a pattern and did his entire pumpkin by himself start to finish. I even talked Ryan into carving a face on the one that looks scared of Michael's pumpkin. He said he can't carve pumpkins because the slimy texture and smell make him sick. Wimp. At least he did it! As for me, I did what every do-it-yourself woman would do and took a drill to mine!!! I love power tools.
Abby so proud of her mean faced Jack.
Their favorite part was pulling out all the slimy seeds inside.
They watched Uncle Jon very longingly as he stabbed the pumpkins to get the tops off.
Michael's took the longest but turned out the best.
Abby's lit up.
All 4 of ours
The entire gang combined with my brother's family's pumpkins.
