Pumpkin Carving with Friends

Riley and Mattie Lou invited us over today to carve a pumpkin. I was a little nervous about letting the kids loose with sharp tools but they actually did a great job. We drew a simple face that consisted of two diamond eyes, an upside down triangle and a spooky mouth. Jack and Caroline both helped with the carving. Jack even did part of it all my himself. I did not let Caroline loose with a sharp instrument (the reason why there is not a picture of her carving). After the pumpkin carving, they made a card for Pop Pop and Cook Cook. Caroline loved making her card! Thanks for having us over and we can't wait to do this again next year!
