It pays off to have a dad that's a dentist. We use latex gloves for anything and everything!
Sultan helped out by licking us anytime we bent over to pick up stuff.We carved all five of the pumpkins we got from the pumpkin patch and ended up with examples of several different emotions. The small ones were all commissioned by Max. He wanted one that was laughing, one that was sad and I influenced him to ask for one that was surprised. The green one is laughing, the smallish one is sad and the tiny one is supposed to be surprised, although Max thought it ended up more sad than anything. I carved the little ones.
Kris and I each carved one of the big ones.
Can anyone tell which is his and which is mine?We had a lot of fun, and somehow none of our pumpkins ended up getting smashed!
Real halloween still to come......

Our pumpkins never got smashed either, although they got pretty moldy and gross since we did them way too early. :( Oh well. I'm axiously awaiting the pictures or halloween, way to keep me in suspense. Hope you are feeling better, Kris said you were a little sick.
I love it! Lemme guess, yours is the one on the right?
I love Sultan, and he really looks like a ghost dog in the first frame of the "film strip"
Ginna,
She wasn't very cooperative with a lot of things. She wined through a lot of the carving and didn't understand what was taking so long. Finally we put the pumpkins on the floor and that helped, except we were constantly afraid with the knives everywhere. It was kind of a nightmare, but you never seem to get pictures of the awful parts. She really didn't enjoy posing for the pictures. She never smiled and in a lot of them she had a pretty grumpy face. Luckily she was alright with the costume this year. Who knows how it will be next year. Your pumpkins turned out really cute! I'm excited to see the other Halloween pictures. Sorry for the long comment.
I gutted the two we did. Murphy took a picture of them, but i didn't - for the first time in twenty eight years. Loved the gloves. Love Max's hair. Yours was the happy one on the right. Loved the dog dog dog and want to know how you did that film thing -
love YOU
Ginna
You guys look like you're having fun on the front porch with the pumkins. Makes us want to be there too. I love the photos and your voice as narrator.
Love you
Dad
you have a fish on your porch. cool. good job on the emotional pumpkins!
Yep, mine was on the right!
Mom, Kris made the film thing in photoshop. Isn't he cool?
Megs, the fish was on the neighbors porch and Max loved it. So one day when we walked by we told them how much he loved it and they immediately gave it to us. So now we have a fish porch!
I'm a bit late at looking at everyones blogs since being on vacation but I loved looking at all the pictures. The pumpkins were really cute and so many. I am impressed. I also liked the filmstrip of pics. What fun memories you are making. Max is so cute as a little giraffe and you and Kris look great too.
