Home Grown Jack O’ Lanterns

The last warm Saturday of the fall Kris took the boys out and picked the pumpkins from the garden.

Apparently raw pumpkin is tasty.  Jaxson spent the whole time we were carving gnawing on the discarded pieces.  Kade did the same thing last year but was not so adventurous this year.

Kade was making scary Halloween faces.

Jaxson isn’t being punished, he is actually just sitting in his favorite corner eating pumpkin like it was candy.

Kade couldn’t let Jaxson be the only one eating pumpkin but he would only lick it.

Kris and I had quite a few Halloweens before kids came along to practice carving pumpkins.

Great job on your pumpkins! Is raw pumpkin really THAT good! Your boys make me want to try it! haha It looks like we both have a couple of star wars lovers! We are always giving Austin a hard time about LOVING star wars...we told him that he will have to grow out of it or no girls will like him when he gets older. But he insists that he is going to find a girl who loves star wars too and they will live happily ever after! Maybe I am just going to have to eventually except the fact that my son may NEVER grow out of it...sigh!

Those are some mad pumpkin carving skills!

Max ate the pumpkin guts too, and the raw seeds. Gross :)
