Giant Pumpkin

GiantPumpkinI attended a couple pumpkin carving events recently and pumpkins were supplied at both of them. The first one featured a rather large pumpkin and as soon as I saw it, I knew I had to try it.

It was lots of fun carving something that big. It was definitely the largest pumpkin I’ve ever done and it was neat creating a larger than life-sized face. Also, it was a lot easier to carve the details.

I took Dyson to the second pumpkin carving party. Mostly he played with the other kids and stuck his head in a pumpkin, which gives me an idea for next year. Anyways, for that one, I carved a much more reasonably sized Daruma pumpkin:
