Last year was our first time carving a pumpkin as a family…to be exact, it was each of our first time carving a pumpkin ever! We had so much fun we decided to make it a fall family tradition.

Last year we went simple with a Christian cross and fish. There wasn’t much detail to the picture, which made it easy to carve. This year we took it up a notch with Mickey Mouse! The ears were quick, but the eyes took a little bit of time and precision. 

My job is to outline the picture with tiny holes from a push pin…I’m in deep concentration if you can’t tell 🙂

This has to be my favorite pic…Javi had just finished carving a part of the pumpkin when they all just sat back and looked…hmmmm….

Wasn’t too sure about the slime…
