Halloween is tomorrow and we went for pumpkins yesterday (so late!). We needed to do carving today, so after dinner, I gutted while the kids contemplated carving patterns. Blythe decided to make her pumpkin into a green witch and did painting after carving. She made a glittery pompom topped wand and a felt hat, then painted red teeth and eyes. Brandt's pumpkin was much larger. He did minimal carving of eyes, nose, and mouth, but then hacked at his pumpkin with a bayonet. I see no real explanation for this except that he is a boy, he found a sword, and hacking was irresistible. Poor pumpkin. I carved a winking face in my small pumpkin, and feel that the pumpkins will add a festive touch to the front porch for tomorrow's trick-or-treating.
