We had a fun pumpkin carving party this weekend at some friends' house. They are amazing hosts and had a delicious dinner and desserts for everyone (probably 20 or so families!) They also provided carving tools and candles for everyone's jack-o-lanterns. We enjoyed scooping out pumpkin guts and visiting with friends. A contest followed, and although we didn't win any prizes, it was fun to see everyone's creations lit up together. Unfortunately, I didn't get any good pictures of that. Jacob (what pumpkins?) spent the night playing with their extensive train collection in the playroom. Fun night.

I love people who host large parties where everyone gets to come and enjoy themselves and they do all the work. Nice friends you have.
Every year I forget how much I hate pumpkin guts until a pumpkin is open anew and my hands get that drying slime feeling. But it looks like your crew had a good time! I like the picture of Sarah displaying the innards.
So fun! We were poo poos this Halloween as far pumpkin carving goes. By the way, LOVE LOVE LOVE your chair and dresser!! I want to see pics of your playroom asap. I wish we lived closer so we could do fun projects together!
We are very impressed with your pumpkin-carving-party. We did so well that our pumpkins are still out on the front steps in the state they came from the garden. No jack-o-lanterns for us old fogies! Good for you energetic people and your neighbors!
I celebrated pumpkin day by eating some pumpkin-from-a-jar pie. Made by somebody else. I guess I'm old like you, Mom. Love the pics, Kim!
