Pumpkin carving on a warm fall day

Natalie and Daddy carved a pumpkin together on a nice, warm fall day in early October.  Grant wasn't at all interested.  So I had to chase him around the yard.  Here they are, getting ready to start the pumpkin!  (Note: Natalie had a super cool green fairy band-aid on her leg that Grammi had given her after getting a bug bite at their house).


Here is Grant, wondering if he can break loose from this joint.  It was really warm out, so he had fun just running around and playing with his firetruck and remote controlled car.


He just really liked playing with the remote control.  Never mind actually using it to make the car drive and spin around.  Natalie did a great job of helping daddy scoop out the pumpkin guts!


Todd was trying to get Grant interested in pumpkin carving, but he didn't want any part of anything he couldn't remote control.


I would like to tell you that this is the finished product, below.  However, it was getting late, so after cutting the top off and scooping out the guts, they put the project on hold for dinner, bath and bedtime.  Within a few days, the pumpkin rotted, so Todd had to go buy and carve a second pumpkin!
