Pumpkin Carving Contest - Saturday Night

We attended the annual Pumpkin Carving Party at our neighbor's house. This is such a great party - there are games for the kids and a bounce house and great food. And you get to carve the pumpkins in someone else's backyard!

This is how you transport 4 heavy pumpkins to your neighbor's house.

She was the only one that even attempted to work on her own pumpkin.

Left to right: Mason's Labrador Retriever - 3rd Place 

Matilda's paisley - 1st Place (she (her pumpkin) also won 1st last year)

Madox's spider - 2nd Place 

Does it seem fair that we (and when I say "we", I really mean "Mark") swept the entire pumpkin carving contest. 

Proudly posing with her First Place win! 

Mason was pretty proud of his win as well. 

Mark didn't have time to finish Madison's pumpkin (getting 3 done in 2 hours was quite the accomplishment), so he has to do an "extra-special" one for her.
