Fall Festivities – Pumpkin Carving

Our family enjoys celebrating the different seasons, Holidays, and events throughout the year.  It has been a blast going to a variety of family friendly Fall Festivals in our area.  The weekends are full of horse back riding, playing in the leaves, hayrides, bonfires, pumpkin carving and all the other fun activities while creating wonderful memories with the family.

The girls have been asking for over a month to carve pumpkins and since they were on sale recently ($3.99 for a 12 ++ pound pumpkins at BiLo) we decided to have a family night together.  We had a great evening of carving pumpkins, roasting the pumpkin seeds, drinking hot apple cider and eating caramel apples.  Daddy free handed the designs the girls drew out on the disposable table cloth.  Everyone had a blast!

If you are wanting to find some great carving patterns that you can download here are a couple websites to check out:

Most of the designs are kid friendly (however there are a few frightful designs).  There is a range from easy to difficult ones depending on what you want to do.  Enjoy time with together and make it a fun celebration while creating memories together.
