We finally bought pumpkins to carve! This month has been so chaotic, we haven't had a chance to visit a pumpkin patch. I know they're fun and all, but we're trying to save money for trips and the idea of $12 a person x 6 is not worth it, especially since the kids have already collected buckets of candy and it's not even Halloween. Elias drew a face for me to carve and he helped pick out all the seeds. This was Cole's first experience with gutting gourds, so he sat by and watched with fascination. We didn't have our pumpkin carving supplies, so I used a bread knife. It worked pretty well, but it was a little clumsy. The kids were impressed. I baked the seeds and they turned out yum. It helps to coat them in maple syrup, then toss them with salt, brown sugar, and pumpkin spice.
