Pumpkin Carving

After the traditional Lichty family visit to the local corn maze, we look forward to our opportunity at artistic expression: pumpkin carving. Invariably the desire for a wonderful idea is replaced by the inability of the carver, me, to transfer said idea to a beautiful side of the pumpkin. However, we try every year and someday it will be wonderful.

Isaac had a great time drawing a face on his. Bailey really wanted a "smiley" jack o'lantern. Camryn spent time drawing numerous concepts, and she had a great time. Jacob drew his prototype, and then the sharp-toothed, six-eyed menace appeared. Nobody was injured, and the pumpkins look presentable. We had a great time as a family.

We look forward to taking the kiddos out on Monday night to trick or treat and bring home the goodies. It will be wondeful to see our Jedis (Jacob and Bailey), Padme Amadala (Camryn) and Yoda (Isaac) as they wander around having a great time. Fortunately the weather should be pretty nice.

Have a wonderful Halloween everyone!

On a related note, I cannot wait until next weekend when I can start putting up the Christmas decorations for my favorite time of the year.
