PUMPKINS (a few days late)

This is more of a "Halloweeny" post but I felt the need to share it anyway.  Every year Daniel and I get together with his family (aunts, uncles, gma, parents, cousins, the whole lot) and carve pumpkins.  It is a ton of fun!  I started carving before I met Dan but I'm glad that I'm marrying into a family that enjoys this fall past time as much as I do.

My tools for a successful carving are as follows: a trip to the pumpkin patch to hand pick the perfect pumpkin; patience (who knew I had those??); a sharp, small knife; and some serious elbow grease to get the wall of the pumpkin pretty darn thin!

Here are the pumpkins Daniel and I carved this year - and a few from previous years. Enjoy!
