Last night we had our friends and family over for a pumpkin carving party!! I made yummy taco soup for everyone and then we carved the night away! It was so much fun and nothing gets you in the Halloween mood like carving pumpkins! We had a variety of pumpkin masterpieces including; a Y for
BYU, a cat, a bat, a welcome sign, a smashed face, a
frowny face, a ghost, and a 3D stretched face! Mikkel is the one who spend the most time on his! He started by peeling off the top 20 layers of the pumpkin and chiseled away piece by piece until the face was perfect! We made a giant mess and ended up with more pumpkin on the floors then on the tables but it was totally worth it! We had so much fun and hope you enjoy the pictures! (I didn't get pictures of all the finished pumpkins, just ours... sorry)

Mikkel and

their pumpkins instead of the top (new strategy i guess)
This is one of the giant messes

Ashley, I have been meaning to comment on your blog for a long time now. Sorry it took me so long! It is so fun to catch with up old friends. I can't believe it's been like 10 years since we were playing Barbies and making our own club. Keep in touch!
You guys are so talented at carving pumpkins! We wanted to come, we were so crazy busy! We really need to hang out!
