Maddie loved carving the pumpkin this year which was fun. We decided to carve the pumpkin Friday afternoon while William took his nap. Auntie Amy said she'd never carved a pumpkin in 85 degree weather before.
Maddie was in charge of scooping out the pumpkin "guts". This was a job she loved and took quite seriously. She didn't want any help from me but she was nice enough to let Grandma Jeanne help her out a bit.
We used a pumpkin carving kit and traced the face. Maddie picked out a smiley faced pumpkin and Auntie Amy said we were going to have the "smiliest pumpkin on the block". Maddie thought that was cute. Even Jackson hung out in the backyard and enjoyed the project.
Maddie was very careful to get all of the pumpkin seeds which Grandma Jeanne roasted when we were done.
Maddie and the finished product! The smiliest pumpkin on the block. Not bad, huh?
