Pumpkin Carving / Painting

We did our yearly pumpkin carving and painting this past Sunday.  The girls love to paint their small pumpkins, in fact I think they like that better than anything else.  Mark carved the pumpkin and boy is it a happy, happy pumpkin!  Hayden pulled all the yucky, yuck stuff out and the seeds.  Gracie refused to stick her hands in the yucky, yuck stuff!  Then they painted their pumpkins with rainbows, flowers and all sorts of girly stuff.  I laughed and told them all that there certainly wasn't anything scary about our Halloween decorations!  So I tried to paint another pumpkin with spiders, bats and witches on it, but lets just say that I am no artist!  Actually, they made fun of my pumpkin and laughed at it!  That's okay though, it was all about memories and having fun.  I am sure that next year Colt Man will show them how to decorate a pumpkin!
