The Final Pumpkin Product

E and her grandpa grew pumpkins this year. E had lots of fun planting, watering and tending the pumpkins as they grew. We watched them all summer grow and change. She and Grandpa always checked and tended the pumpkins each time that we visited their house. Grandpa sent them home with her last weekend and she had been anxious to turn them into jack o' lanterns all week. On Tuesday, we cleaned them all out and Jut carved 2 of them. Tonight, Jut finished carving the last 2, under E's direction, of course.

Cleaning the pumpkins on Tuesday night. She used a spoon to scoop out the innards.

E's big pumpkins waiting to be cleaned out.

E took more of a supervisors role for the majority of the evening...lounging in her chair.
Feeding the jack o' lanterns pumpkin seeds was good fun too!

The pumpkins were lots of fun to climb on...

E chose the design of all but the one on the left...
it is supposedly Punisher

Didn't E choose great designs...and didn't Jut do a great job carving them?!

We did have a great time with the pumpkins through the planting and carving process. I still have a couple more batches of seeds to roast...those pumpkins were huge!
