Carving Pumpkins

Tonight for Family home evening we carved pumpkins. We do this every year (along with most of the world!) and have a lot of fun doing it. Jesse crowns himself the "winner" every year! Well this year we decided to make it official and called our neighbor's Shawn and Michelle to come over and judge. They were good sports about coming over and going along with our craziness! We are a VERY competitive family, but it really is all in fun.
Jesse carving his masterpiece.
Hunter working very hard on his!
Look, it's Garrett! He didn't even cover his face for the picture!
Jesse, Garrett and Hunter. Hunter is standing by his pumpkin (the skull) Jesse's is on top of the straw (gargoyle), Garrett has his arm around his (headless horseman) and mine is next to Garrett's (witch).
Don't mind this AWFUL picture of me. I am fighting a horrible head cold!
I know your just dying to know who won! Well Hunter took 1st, Jess took 2nd, and Garrett and I were after them! We may be a little nutty but hey we have fun with it!
Happy Halloween!

Your family is so cute! Hard to believe you have a 13 year old. :) Aleksa just turned 14 this month.
You look beautiful as ever! We live in Spanish Fork so maybe some time we should get together for lunch or something to catch up. Great to see you!
