Better Late Than Never

So you will probably think we are crazy, but yesterday, 2 days after Halloween, Mike and I carved our pumpkin :) The plan was to carve it Halloween night, but we were much too busy. We had bought the pumpkin and we didn't want it to go to waste. We had never carved a pumpkin together before which is another reason we wanted to do it. We have been together the last 3 Halloweens and this is the first year we ended up doing. The funny thing is we have bought a pumpkin every year, we just didn't ever do it the other two years :) Here are some pictures of our endeavors:

Here is Mike cutting off the top


Here we are cleaning it out. I'm sorry, but pumpkin insides REAK!!!




And the carving begins :)




Alena had to get in on the action too. You may be thinking, "Wow, that is one big pumpkin" but it's not. Our sweet little Alena is just still really small :)


So here is the finished product. We had so much fun :) We were very proud of the end result.
