Utterly Revolting

I have never ever carved a pumpkin and now I know why. It is utterly revolting to the touch and it smells putrid. Jacob has always done it with Lily and I have never heard him complain about it but he would walk through fire for his little girl.

When we went to the pumpkin patch a week ago we bought pumpkins to carve and they have been sitting around looking fine and dandy and we forgot about them. Jacob realised yesterday that they needed to be carved and had planned on doing it with Lily yesterday when she came home from school however she came home really tired and cranky so it never happened. So, this evening I took it upon myself to carve it with her. EWWWWWWW, yuck.

She drew the design that she wanted and then we carved it together. As soon as we took the top off we knew it was going to be a yucky job. I, of course, decided I needed to film her putting her hand in for the first time.

Lily Takes Over The Video

As soon as it was dark I took Lily and Jack 'O' Grossness outside so that we could light him. I took a few photos but found out quickly that the flash on the camera is so good that it looks like the middle of the day

So then I fiddled around with the camera and managed to find the special effects....much better.

Lily's face is PRICELESS as she reaches her hand into the pumpkin gooey-ness!!

Did you get all the pumpkin seeds out & roast them in the oven?? That was always my favorite part! ;)

I LOVE the face that she made when touching the goopy goodness (and your face was pretty funny too!)

Did you cook the seeds? Now THAT is yummy!

OK, so I just noticed my comment is pretty much ditto what patricia/nyc said. Oh well.
Great minds think alike, I guess.
