Pumpkin Carving

Today was pumpkin-carving day. This is one of my least favorite parts of fall...I hate the sticky, gooey pumpkin guts that stick to your arms and make you itch. However, since I love my children, I suck it up for their sake. Jacob and Ellie had fun drawing out their designs before we started the actual carving. Thankfully, they didn't want anything elaborate!
