He's a pumpkin... literally!



We had our traditional halloween this year. Every year we get together with Evan's sister to carve pumpkins the week of halloween. Now that we live closer, we were over every night last week. Now, I'm not talking about carving pumpkins the way you're thinking, I'm talking week-long sculpting and planning, tracing patterns, power tools, intricate carving knives, etc. Laura goes all out! Last year we carved something like 62 pumpkins.


Anyway, we had a good time this year, as usual, and Evan's other sister, Terri suggested we put baby P IN a pumpkin! That sounded easy enough. I sculpted out his name, and carved out 2 leg holes, and Voila! His first Halloween costume was born. As you can see, he didn't really like it, but he'll laugh at the pictures in years to come. Thanks Laura for letting us tear apart your house!
