Pumpking Carving

So we have been going to carve pumpkins all week, but things kept coming up so tonight we made sure we got the right pumpkins and gave them their faces. We had to do a little convincing, for some reason Dayton kept wanting weird ones, but we found one we all agreed on. So we came home to carve them and I have been so excited to do this with Dayton because he has been really into Halloween this year. So we got everything ready and the pumpkins all clean and then Dayton would not touch them. He wanted Kyle and I to clean them out and all he wanted to do was stab them with a fork. He finally gave up on that when he realized that he was never going to be able to. And after about 15 minutes he asked if he could watch cartoons. I could not believe it, I thought for sure he was going to love this but I guess he thought it was an adult thing because all he wanted to do was watch tv.

I got him a spoon to help me clean it out but he said it was too messy, so I got him a bigger spoon but I still could not talk him into it. He was a good fan watching on the side lines though.

Here they are ready for their big night! Camrie got a smiley face just like her, & Dayton asked for a mean face.

They turned out cute. That's too funny that Dayton didn't want to touch the nasty stuff, I'm the same way!

You're better than me, I didn't want to deal with the grimy pumpkin mess, so we painted. Still a mess, but a different kind of mess! Your pumpkins turned out way cute! Way to go!
