VICTORY IS MINE!
 

We won 'most creative' pumpkins. If we like, we can have our pumpkins on the judges table during the parade this Wednesday.

Congratulations O Mighty Pumpkin Masters!!

Who will have the honor of smashing those award winning pumpkins?

Punkin Chunkin is coming up ...

Hearty Congratulations, LJ!

Several years ago I did a couple of really cool pumpkin carvings ... I did Cartman, Xena, and The Scream. Can't find any of the pictures, unfortunately.

Heh heh heh

One more week!

One way to keep them under control. ;)

Okay, not award winning.
But I respect myself for it.

C'mon! First one I ever carved.
See happy thread for rest of my Halloween happiness, ie getting to dress up.
FTR - like Valentine's, it's the same name but a completely different thing in this country. Think soccer in the US (as opposed to the rest of the world) as a comparison.

That's great, SG!

Very cool! You obviously have much more dexterity than I've ever been able to manage with a knife and a pumpkin.

better than any I've ever done.

Hmmm...something to think about. People may think I'm nuts with too much time on my hand for carving watermelons. :p

LJ: Congratulations! :D

Anyways, I've decided to let my nephew and his cousin to draw on the pumpkin for fun. :p I'm very clumsy, especially with a knife. I cut myself while chopping food and peeling stuffs all the time. The thought of me handling a knife around two 5 yr. olds is rather scary. Why not buy a pumpkin carving kit? Because I think it's a waste of money...:nuts::lol: hihi....just poking fun at Radar. Sorry if you don't think it's funny. :blush: I'm not sure I'd do this next year so no use buying a whole kit for something to be used only once. :D

Wow, looks more like a 20th pumpkin, than a first... excellent. :thumb2:

But if the kit helps you create a pumpkin you're pleased with, you'll be inspired to do it every year. Maybe watermelons, oranges and grapes too. Queen of Bento Box lunches, even. :D

Hmmmmm.....I like that idea of being Queen of Bento Box lunches...:king::lol: Maybe I will get the kit. It may be too late to carve the pumpkin with the kids but I can use it on oranges and watermelons. :D

If you don't get it in time you can pait them and save the kit for Bento Boxes. ;)

The School Parade
