Carving the Pumpkins

Before we got down to the business of carving our pumpkins, Daddy had a special treat for the kids:
 
a cauldron (bucket) of witch's potion!
 
With the help of a couple of green light sticks, the dry ice Daddy got to impress the kids was a big hit.  He even put it in green Gatorade and then let the kids have a drink.
 
 
 
 
The boys loved it, because they love everything.



 
Grace was not as impressed with the taste.

 
But the pumpkin carving was a huge success.  We had many cups of pumpkin seeds, which were roasted and eaten within a few days.  Haley was the only one to use a template for her pumpkin (bottom right).  All the rest were done by hand (mostly with Daddy's help).  Matthew drew his face before Daddy cut it (middle top).  It made our doorstep very festive!
