Carving Pumpkins

We had a difficult time fitting pumpkins into our schedule this year. It was also difficult to find any left. We had to settle for the scarred, stem-less, lumpy grocery store pumpkins that no one else wanted, but they did the job. We carved them after dinner Wednesday evening. The kids were not getting along well, and my pumpkin reflected my mood at the moment. I'm pretty sure you can figure out which one is mine. Despite their unpleasantness , I'm glad we kept to our tradition of carving pumpkins together. The kids didn't seem nearly as bothered by their behavior as I did, and I think they enjoyed themselves.
