. . . for Lauren and Lauren: Pumpkin Carving Success

October 16, 2013

Pumpkin Carving Success


I have to start this post by telling you that you should read this first.  Last year I shared our evolution of pumpkin carving, which started with real thoughtful, time consuming carving, proceeded by drawing on our pumpkins with sharpies and ended last year with not even purchasing a pumpkin but just holding on up for a picture at the pumpkin patch.  


Basically it comes down to the fact that pumpkin carving is hard work and I'm lazy about it.  However, having a baby means stepping up our yearly traditions and no more faking it by just taking pictures.  (Okay, we could actually fake it since Addilyn won't remember but we won't get away with it for long).

Read the rest of our pumpkin carving experience here.  Plus see some of the failed Addi in pumpkin pictures!

Hi Katie, thanks for your kind words the other day. I am feeling better just taking an easy.

Addilyn is really the sweetest baby ever. This picture really made me smile. I love it :)

I'm just surprised you got a successful baby pumpkin picture! I've seen a lot of (still cute but) not that picture-perfect pumpkin babies!

That photo is precious! Carving pumpkins is definitely one of my favorite Fall traditions. I'm sure having a little one makes it even more fun (even if she can't quite participate yet)! ;)

I hope you keep this pictures forever. Maybe even you Christmas card it's perfection!!!

So cool to be able to carve pumpkins. I wished this type of thing is common at where I live. Look like a cute experience.
