So yesterday I asked Dakin what kind of pumpkin he wanted--Rocket from Little Einsteins, a car, or a butterfly. He didn't say, so I opted for the butterfly, largely because that's the pattern I could find. I had to freehand it, but I don't think it turned out too badly.
Dakin was not happy while Dada and I took turns cutting the hole in the bottom. Not sure why, he just kept complaining--Dada thinks it's because he doesn't like seeing a fellow Halloween symbol being 'defaced.' Guess these Halloween guys need to stick together. He did enjoy looking at the inside of it...
And then of course my good carvers broke and I had to go at it with my chef's knives...what a mess. But here it is.

Wow, that's really awesome, Devon! I'm am a miserable failure at pumpkin carving...sigh.
It looks great, way to go
oh I hear ya, we or I should say I am a pumpkin freak, Sky loves to play with the mess, Moni loves to toast the seeds, and I LOVE to carve. Your pumpkins look great!!!!
WOw you are talented!! We love carving around here also!! We have a few done but need to do a few more! When you have three boys who want to carve it takes longer than norm!! :)
That pumpkin looks amazing!! Great job!
That's a pretty big pumpkin! Good butterfly! It looks great all lit up. We paint our pumpkins here because I'm not into the ooze and mess. :) But my daughter keeps begging me this year so we might end up doing it.
