Carving Pumpkins

Well, it is that time of year already. I can't hardly believe it. This year has seemed to just fly by. Not to mention that we have already had snow. I am a little concerned about how this winter is going to turn out. Oh well, the past couple weeks have been back to normal temps, so that is a good thing!

We are so busy these days with Anna in dance class, Gabe in Boy Scouts, Doug on a bowling league, church choir, and Doug's other meetings that we had to carve our pumpkins the Sunday before Halloween. With the colder weather, we did lose one of our pumpkins. Doug and Anna worked on that one first and then we baked it. We ended up with enough pumpkin for 12 pies!!! Then, we did have a couple smaller ones we bought just for baking and ended up with enough for 5 more. Not to mention the stuff that I still had in the freezer. I am set for the next year. It is a great thing that my kids LOVE pumpkin pie and pumpkin bread!


Here are our little creations....
