Carving Out Memories

Yesterday we took the boys to get pumpkins. We have our 2 "faux" pumpkins on the porch that we plug in each year, but I think the boys are finally getting old enough to appreciate and enjoy pumpkin carving. We took a trip to Smith's and let each of them pick out a pumpkin. Mote of course ended up with the biggest one, Nic got a medium sized one and Siope- the smallest one... go figure. It turned out to be so much fun! We cleaned them out out in the backyard so that we didn't have to worry about making a mess. Me and Ti Tonga helped, but for the most part they each scooped out the inside of their own pumpkins. They chose a design from our carving book and poked out the design, then me and Ti Tonga did most of the carving.

Here's the finished products. Can you guess which pumpkin belongs to which boy???
