Pumpkin Carving Time

As each year passes, Alden is more capable at helping during the carving time. This year we practiced on an old shoe box first so he could get a feel for the drag and pull of the dull knife. That was almost as much fun as the act of carving a pumpkin itself.
We did carve two pumpkins on a Monday night and by Thursday we had to throw them out. The San Diego weather creates an all too healthy environment for mold to grow at a rapid pace. We bought another giant pumpkin and decorated it with nailed on stars and sequins and a drawn on face.
