Pumpkin Carving in Woburn


Janelle's mother, Stacia, for the past few years has invited us all down to her house for a summer cookout, usually in August. This year, for many reasons, we could never come up with a good date until now, so it was decided that we would do pumpkin carving at her house.

While we were getting ready for dinner (which was delicious, by the way), Mason and Marley played outside.





Starting to carve.....



Mason wanted to help.





He thought it was "stinky" though.



Mark and Toby were slackers for awhile. Toby eventually got into it.



So did Mark.





Although we all felt that it was a "marginal" effort that Mark put forth!



This was one of Marley's pumpkins. She also made the one with the cat silhouette.



Kris did her job with the seeds again this year with enthusiasm. Stacia and I helped with this too. This really is one of the worst jobs!





Janelle's sister, Amy, has Rock Band for PlayStation and we all had fun playing with this.





In the end, these were our carvers.....




And these were our jack-o-lanterns.



What a really fun day. Thanks Stacia for hosting this!!
