Carving Pumpkins for Halloween 2012

Well, last night we decided to carve our pumpkins. Kevin was going to do Ned Flanders as the devil but the stencil was too big for his pumpkin. I offered to shrink it down but he decided that it would be too hard then because of the lines shrinking way down. So...he did a spider instead. I'm actually glad he did because it fits into our whole entryway theme a lot better!

I was a little more ambitious on my carved pumpkin. I created a custom stencil on my computer of Trent Reznor and went from there.

I really wanted to carve this pumpkin last year (and attempted to) but who would have thought that a one month old baby, at the time, would break my concentration and demand all of my attention. Needless to say, last year I broke half of his face and just gave up. This year, I finally was able to create my masterpiece!

Rowen was much more of a help this year too! Look at her having fun:
