Pumpkin carving 2011

While Linh played ball on Saturday morning, I carved pumpkins with Denny. We tried to get Nathan to scoop out the pumpkin seeds with his hands, but he hated the slimy feeling. I thought all kids liked to get their hands dirty, but apparently not Nathan. 

When it came to actually carving the pumpkins, I was debating between angry birds, jack skeleton, UCLA logo, McQueen and/or Mater. Ultimately, I settled on McQueen and Mater since they are two of Nathan's favorite Cars characters.

Impatiently waiting to carve pumpkins.

Making uncle Denny do all the dirty work.


Look of disgust on his face when we made him scoop the seeds with his hands.


Mater by uncle Denny.

McQueen by me.

The finished product!

My kids wouldn't touch it either. They used a spoon and even then if a little slime touches them, they hate it. Needless to say, Mike did all the work himself. :) I was busy making a hat for Grumpy that he didn't wear...
