Pumpkin Carving

Last Friday Brad and I carved pumpkins with my old roommate and her boyfriend. It was a lot of fun and I took lots of pictures, mostly of Brad. Here are a few of my favorites.

Brad is quite the formidable opponent with a knife


Except for when he does that cute thing with his tongue


Taking my turn in our tag-team carving effort


Our finished creation (it is supposed to be a mummy... just use your imagination)

Nice pumpkin! I'm glad you told us what it was though...because I don't think I could have figured it out on my own. :)

So many people have been posting about pumpkin-carving and I'm getting very excited to carve mine! ...Sometime this week when things aren't crazy...

Sweet pumpkin. You look cute carving. We need to live closer to each other so I can borrow your clothes.

A mummy? Maybe it looks better in real life!

Cute pictures!

Aaron does the same thing with his tongue!! I'm glad he's not alone, maybe they could start a "i stick my tongue out when i'm concentrating" support group : )

No Halloween is complete without the traditional pumpkin carving. That's a pretty crazy knife you guys used. I like the mummy idea. It takes imagination and it's different than the traditional jack-o-lantern faces.

I thought the carving looks like some oriental writing. Maybe it spells mummy in Chinese!

A mummy? Oh yeah...I see...

Oh, who am I kidding...I just don't see it.

But I never did have a very good imagination.... ;)

I've decided this new version of carving pumpkins is too hard. I think I'll stick to triangles for eyes, nose and mouth.
