Pumpkin Carving

Sometimes my children surprise me. Last weekend we carved a pumpkin, and I expected Audrey to have little interest and John to love playing with the "pumpkin guts." That's not exactly what happened, John was so excited about the process but when it came to the actually work he decided it was bit to yucky for him, and was more than willing to sit back and watch his baby sister dig out the pumpkin, and she took her job very seriously.

After mom and Audrey cleaned it out, daddy carved a face and John supervised the entire process. He obviously felt it was his job to tell everyone what to do and how to do it, but didn't want to be the one getting his hands dirty...typical man!


Despite the lack of in hands on involvement from John, it was still a fun family activity, and both John & Audrey are so proud of their finished project, and love to show him off to anyone that comes by the house.
