Carving pumpkins is fun isn’t it? We visited our local family farm last week and picked out about ten pumpkins of varying sizes. This weekend we had really warm weather (almost 70 degrees) and went out side to carve some of the pumpkins we picked out.
My Princess wanted to use the Toothless Dragon Pumpkin Stencil for her pumpkin. She tried to do it alone, but it proved a bit difficult. That’s ok, we had fun doing it together.
My husband wanted to carve a simple jack-o-lantern style pumpkin.
Here’s our Toothless dragon pumpkin
It looks better at night with the LED tea light candle in it! Visit my Instagram page to see it lit up.
Did you carve pumpkins this year?
We haven’t carved yet. We usually wait a couple of days before Halloween so the ants don’t take over it. Yours look great!
Janet that’s a great idea. The slugs are getting into ours!
I love carving pumpkins but really suck at it. We bought ones this year, just haven’t carved them yet.
We have a few smaller ones still. We’re thinking of painting those ones instead of carving more.
I am terrible at carving pumpkins. Maybe your hubby can come over and help me with ours lol
Pumpkin Carving is always fun but the mess is almost to much for me! But your husband’s idea of doing it in the grass is the best idea I’ve seen yet!
Thankfully, we had a warm day to do it. But, I told him that those stray pumpkin seeds better not grow pumpkins in my front yard 🙂
We just carved all of ours. We make a big production out of it. Gotta create those family moments!
(Carving Pumpkins: Toothless Dragon Pumpkin) It sure looks like the kids had a lot of fun carving the pumpkins with Dad. The pictures turned out great too. ( Happy Halloween)
Aww how cute! We havent even picked our pumpkins yet (AH) we never wait this late but we are going this Saturday.
We got to take a field trip with the local public school to a family farm yesterday and got even more pumpkins. We have a lot of pumpkins!
