Well, tonight was the night for the annual carving of the Honnold Jack O'Lantern.
This is the pumpkin we picked up at Wagon Wheel Pumpkin Farm near Lane Illinois a couple weeks back. It is a nice, round gourd with a very large and flat carving surface.
Once we cut its lid off, it proved to be a very good one.
A sweet pumpkin smell.
Lots of seeds.
Lots of gooey, oozey, slimey guts.
Just what a good carving pumpkin should be IMHO !!
All 3 of the girls were very active participants, with each designing one of the facial features.
We'll light it up and get it on the porch tomorrow night.
Below are a few shots of the gourd in transition from run-of-the-mill field pumpkin to awesome and spectacular Honnold Family Pumpkin for Halloween 2013.
Out for now....
Matt
