AW your Pumpkins!

If you've already carved pumpkins, show them off!

I cheated and made a stencil with my silhouette, because I'm terrible at coming up with ideas, but this is how mine turned out:

Re: AW your Pumpkins!

  • We carved last night, but I didn't take pictures!  I also did an owl- via Martha Stewart.  I'll PIP tonight, but this was the carving.

  • We'd have a pile of mush by the weekend if we did pumpkins this early! But, yours is very cute! :)
  • Cute, love all the owls! 

    We let DD draw on hers this year. Maybe next year when she is a bit older we will attempt carving.

    I actually left my pumpkin at my friends house. We get a TON of trick or treaters, but we decided not to pass out candy this year since MH will be out of town and I didn't want to put up any decorations to make the kids think we were.
