Pumpkin Carvers

Jillian and Bridget picked out their pumpkins yesterday at the Willow Grove patch. All of us drove out there in the afternoon, and slogged through the thick mud and pouring rain in searching for the just-right-pumpkin. Jillian found hers quickly, and then went to work helping Bridget find hers, as well as a tiny one for the new baby. It was a quick trip, thankfully, because the girls were a bit cold and miserable by the time it was over.

After some naps on Sunday, we got going on the pumpkin carving on Sunday evening. Daddy opened up and scraped all the pumpkins, and Jillian was brave enough to reach in and pull out the insides of her pumpkin. Bridget wasn't so thrilled with touching the insides, preferring to just turn her pumpkin upside-down and shake the stuff out. Jillian then took charge and drew faces on both hers and Bridget's pumpkins. Mommy and Daddy worked on their own, as well as making one for the new baby. The girls were both very proud and excited about their jack-o-lanterns.
