Pumpkin Carving in TX...


This weekend Dallen really wanted to carve pumpkins. Matt and I took the kids to the HEB they both picked out a pumpkin they were so excited.
Dallen had a fun time Carving his pumpkin. He was not to impressed with the pumpkin guts.
Darren carved a happy pumpkin and Dallen carved a scary pumpkin.. We all had a really good time. It is always fun watching the kids enjoy the holidays. Too Bad the poor pumpkins only lasted one day!! If you live in TX you should wait until the day before Halloween to carve your pumpkins because of the HUMIDITY the pumpkins grew mold over night"So Gross"!!! We had two very sad faces when we had to throw the pumpkins away.

Pumpkin guts are nasty! Too bad they molded so quickly, but I guess thats South TX for ya!

Very cute and scary pumpkins. They did a great job. I love the display!
I read recently that if you want your pumpkins to last longer you should put them in the fridge at night, but who really has that kind of room in their fridge? :)

Those pumpkins were really cute! I'm sorry you had to throw them out. My kids always hate to do that no matter how bad the pumpkins get!
