We started a new method of transferring the pattern to the pumpkin this year. Instead of a pounce wheel or a poking tool to transfer the pattern through the paper, this year we used transfer paper. It was a lot quicker, but it did smear once it got wet. Still, I think I prefer it over the pounce wheel.
Two thumbs up from Abby.
I'm obviously very intense about carving out my pumpkin.
Amy and Austin lending their full support to the effort.
I chose do to an homage to Chick-Fil-A with my Eat Mor Chikin pumpkin.
Theresa is supporting her sister this year with a pumpkin celebrating the Detroit marathon. The marathon takes you into Canada, thus the US star and the Canadian Maple leaf.
Ethan chose a St. Louis Cardinals pumpkin. Unfortunately it didn't help them and they still lost the series.
Abby carved Rapunzel. Aubrey was doing a Pascal, but unfortunately the pattern we transferred onto the pumpkin for the face smeared off after she ran her hand over it. It's still a work in progress.
Austin had a school project to make a parade float based on a book he read. He and Donald carved a couple scenes from the book onto the pumpkin. On one side they had a city skyline and the other a Sherlock Holmes silhouette.
The next morning Rita ran the Detroit Marathon and this is what was waiting for her at home.
Congratulations Rita!
