Each year a group of students at the local College that Dave works at hosts a Community Pumpkin Carving day. You can come and get a pumpkin and carve it there. So not only do you get a free pumpkin, you don't have a mess to clean up at your own house after carving pumpkins! Win-win!
This was actually the first year that we have gone to it. I wasn't aware of it until last year and I assumed it would be super crowded and crazy, but it wasn't too bad! There were plenty of pumpkins and while we did have to share tools, we didn't have to wait too long for them.
Its fun now that the older kids are able to carve their own. They really enjoy planning out their design and cutting it themselves.
Evy had fun crawling around with the pumpkins. I couldn't resist taking more pictures of her with them. I will spare you and only post this one! She sure is a cute little pumpkin!
We carved a little pumpkin for her and she had fun holding the lid.
Like most things she picks up, she had to put it in her mouth. She actually thought it tasted pretty good and kept sucking on it.
Yumm! A pumpkin Lollipop!
See how the Jack O' Lanterns turned out after the jump!
