Pumpkin carving

Since Halloween is the last Western holiday we'll be able to celebrate here for awhile, I wanted to go all out for my pumpkin carving. I went to browse for ideas on Pinterest, my latest and greatest time-waster these days. This is the manifestation of the idea I got:



If you're wondering, the pumpkin I carved is on the right :)

I was excited because it involved both Christmas lights (I happened to have orange lights on hand) and a power drill. I had never used a drill before, especially on a member of the Cucurbitaceae family. For carving his very first pumpkin, Reuben did an epic job as well. If a pumpkin could describe our personalities, I think this pair did a pretty good job.

Happy Halloween!
