Happy Halloween!!

I am not a big holiday decorator. But for some reason this Halloween, I thought I was Martha Stewart. What gave me the urge to carve a pumpkin, I don’t know. I knew how this would end up….Kids start out wanting to help and as soon as you tell them to scoop out the pumpkin….”Ewwww! I’m not touching that!” And I have boys! Not only do we have to carve a pumpkin, I thought, “Why not make a cool one?” I let Kobe pick out the design from this little book we got that came with all the tools to help you carve your masterpiece. He couldn’t pick an easy one, well, it wasn’t the hardest, so I shouldn’t complain. But I knew that with those little saws they give you I was bound to break something off. I did! And I swear there was something wrong with my pumpkin. Because in all the years that we had hollowed pumpkins growing up, I never had one shred like spaghetti. So here is a small slice of Halloween in our house….luckily you can’t see the little pin holding the skull head together after I broke it off…
