Halloween Week: Part 3 - Pumpkin Carving

This is the first year we introduced Meredith to pumpkin carving. She has fallen in love with pumpkins this year, so we thought it would be fun. However, we had a few problems...1) Meredith hates anything yucky. 2) Neither Neal nor I had carved a pumpkin in forever, so we were a little rusty. All in all, the pumpkin turned out cute, but there was less family bonding than I would have envisioned, although with such a little princess, I should have guessed!

Probably as close as Meredith got to the yucky inside of the pumpkin. I, however, had orange goo up to my elbows!

The finished product - she still wasn't in the mood to really participate, so this is the best picture we could get!
