Pumpkin Carving..... and Burnt Seeds

We had our annual Pumpkin Carving Extravaganza at the Hoods a little late this year. :-) But, we had a good time and turned out some pretty cut pumpkins this year. Look for the final products on the Halloween post.

Daddy and Eden getting ready to start the "adults" pumpkin. We chose to do a pirate ship.



































Liana and Kaela hard at work....they did a vampire scene... it was COOL!







































Okie dokie, Jen.... :-)















Seth and Jen "carving" theirs. They chose to do the bat. There were pegs that they pounded into the pumpkin and then when the light was put into the inside, the bat lit up. It was cool.... and EASY! (yeah)











































And Mommy burnt the seeds....I think i'm going to hang up trying to cook pumpkin seeds. It seems like every year something goes wrong... Oh, well....















Be sure to check out the pumpkins on our Halloween blog coming next!

Pumpkin art is awesome, this year a friend of mine did a sad pumpkin, with a toy gun in one side, a hole on the other side and the "guts" laying on the ground. Suicide Pumpkin. Twas awesome.
And eating the seeds? I love eating pumpkin seeds seasoned with garlic and salt.
Good times....
