carvin' pumpkins

now that we've got the pumpkins, the next step is to carve them, right?  we dug right in as soon as we got home and made the best chock-o-lanterns that we could!  ledge wasn't so keen on the messy part of cleaning them out, but he was eager to draw out the faces he had in mind for them!  since he's only five, i took the knife cutting duties and made the faces to his exact specifications.  he was very pleased with the results and was excited to put lights inside them to see how they would look at night.  we lugged them into the bathroom (the darkest room in the house), and tried them with a light to see how they would look.  ledge was quite pleased with the results and both of them got the thumbs up.  now we are ready for halloween!
