Pumpkin Carving Contest

Well, it's that time again! Kurt and I decided to have our annual pumpkin carving contest at home. Yes, it's only the two of us that participate, and there really isn't a winner, but it's still fun. Kurt started calling it our Pumpkin Carving Contest, and it started sometime late in college. We decided it would be fun to get pumpkins and then try to carve these intricate designs in them that took hours to do...yes, fun to some people. Anyhow, we were at it again this year.
Kurt picked out this mummy to do, which ended up being a pain in the butt, then our small saw broke, so we were having to share one tool, but we survived and despite a few teeth missing on my pumpkin, they turned out alright.
On Saturday, I woke up feeling so awful and Kurt had to work most of the day, so we ended up staying in and watching movies at home Saturday night. We decided that the weather was too nice to stay in all day on Sunday, so the pumpkin carving was a perfect Sunday treat! Now we just have to get our Halloween costumes ready to go in a few weeks! Happy Halloween!!!

Kurt took pictures of our pumpkins in the bathroom with the lights off...he couldn't wait to see what they would look like when they were lit.
