Carving Pumpkins

On the Monday before Halloween, we carved and painted pumpkins for Family Home Evening. The kids loved going with me to the store to pick out the perfect pumpkins.
Of course, we needed to have a silly picture.Notice Emmy's braid in her hair? She loves it when I put a little braid in her hair.
The kids loved painting their pumpkins. The kids were so proud of their pumpkins. I think the pumpkins turned out great.Below are videos of the kids talking about what they painted.

After we painted pumpkins, we got ready to help daddy carve the last pumpkin.
The kids had fun sticking their hands in the pumpkin and feeling the goop.
Hyrum, Ben and Emmy were great helpers in scooping out the goop out of the pumpkin.
The kids decided that they wanted Brandon to carve a face on the pumpkin that would match the pumpkin light in the house. It was such a fun night. I loved watching the kids and hearing their excitement in their voice as they decorated their pumpkins. It was a great night as a family.
