Tonight we carved pumpkins with the girls in preparation for Halloween tomorrow! Shaun helped Ellie draw her face and carve the pumpkins and I helped Abby. Each girl had a lot of fun and even helped us choose their face designs. Abby went with a more traditional face on her pumpkin and Ellie did a traditional face but asked daddy to put ears on him as well.

 |
| Now that’s true talent. |

| Abby balanced her spoon with ease and grace. |

| Scooping “pumpkin guts” never looked so cute! |

| All done with her pumpkin. Look, he even has ears! |

| Abby and her pumpkin. So proud! |
While Shaun and I did most of the work it was the time spent together and the fun that we had that made it special. The girls loved being silly, balancing their spoons on their nose and having a blast scooping out all of the “pumpkin guts”. When the pumpkins were finished both Abby and Ellie were very proud. We cant wait to put them out on the porch for all of the Trick or Treaters to see!
