The Carving Clan!

We are so glad Christensen's came over to carve pumpkins with us.  They made it so much fun and because of them the pumpkins actually have legible faces! (Aren't their kids so cute?!) They brought some fun little gadgets that made it possible to carve A+ pumpkins! Unfortunately we did this activity during little Mason's bedtime, so Josh found a way to include him.... 

Notice Josh's pumpkin... He is one of those talented carvers with an idea! He saw my sister Michelle put her little guy in a pumpkin a couple years ago and has been wanting to do it with his boy every since.  Well, the pumpkin was carved and ready, all we needed was to wait until the baby woke up to execute the plan!
Mason didn't think it was such a "cute" idea! In fact we tried a couple of times and then by the intense cry we could tell we were pushing a little too hard just for a cute picture! Maybe we'll try again next year with a bit bigger pumpkin!

Poor Mason! He has been put in a pumpkin and compared to a pumpkini!Even though he was having a hard time with the pumpkin, it was a cute "crying" picture. Of course, he does not take a bad picture ever! It looks like you had a lot of fun!
