Pumpkin Fun...

Last Halloween we looked online at all these elaborately carved pumpkins and Delaney found a really cool pirate ship that she wanted to re-create for Halloween. We found a pattern and everything but still couldn't carve our pumpkin into a pirate ship.


This year I discovered that Disney's Family Fun website has a lot of really neat ideas for pumpkin carving that appear pretty easy to re-create at home.

Here are a few of Delaney's favorites...

The Shish Ka Boo Pumpkin

Fishy Food Chain Pumpkins


All Stitched Up Pumpkin



And some of ideas on the Family Fun website, require no carving at all...

Bat O Lantern Pumpkins



And then on the Buzznet Gallery we found these little beauties...


It's not exactly appropriate for a house with a pre-schooler but never the less, Chris was a big fan.

We'll be home the 24th.

So we'll have plenty of time for a little pumpkin carving.
