Charlie carved his first pumpkin today. Well, to be honest, I carved while Charlie assisted. I bought a pumpkin carving kit and let Charlie pick the design for his pumpkin. He was excited about a cat, but really wanted me to put a dog on the other side. I had to try to explain that without a template, his puppy would not look much like a puppy.
The best part was lighting the pumpkin tonight together as a family. We even had some extra time to take a quick walk to look for the moon. When we came inside, we enjoyed some yummy roasted pumpkin seeds.

I love it! I can't wait to carve with Ellie this weekend. It will also be her first time....we skipped last year. Also, I'll be stealing that idea of lighting as a family. Might have thought about it anyway but maybe not. :) WE look for the moon EVERY night at our house. I love the joy on her face when she sees it. If we can't find it we say, "moon is hiding tonight!" :) Got to love those kid moments!
