Zombie Hand Pumpkin

The boys carved a pumpkin earlier this week while I was at work so all I have to show are pictures of the final finished product (with a very adorable boy!). According to Hubby, out of all the Superheroes and cutesy patterns we have, Nathaniel was adamant about choosing this Zombie hand pattern. I don't know if I should be proud or creeped out! The lighted picture was taken the night after it was carved so as you can see, the Zombie hand is starting to die because of the heat (no pun intended). We've been bringing it inside during the day but just forgot to do so yesterday :( And no, I did not tell Nathaniel to put his elbow on the pumpkin! I just asked him to sit next to it and was taken aback at his posing. I mean, hello? I'm a lifestyle photographer. I suck at posing people! The credit is all on him. And yes, I probably should sweep the dead leaves. But really, doesn't it add authenticity and character to the photo? Yup, I'm sticking to that reasonin...

Spiderman Pumpkin

We carved a pumpkin last week. While shopping for halloween decorations, Nathaniel saw a Marvel super heroes pattern book and there was just no convincing him to wait. And since my husband loves to carve pumpkin, we went ahead and carved one. Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of finished product because I forgot to buy a tea light and never got around to purchasing one. But I know for a fact we will be carving (several!) more pumpkins within the next few weeks and this Spiderman pattern will most likely make its appearance again.

Pumpkin Carving

Halloween is my husband's favorite holiday and it would just not be complete without carving a few pumpkins. So as soon as we got back from Pumpkin Patch , Hubby went straight to carving pumpkins. Hubby carved his two pumpkins: The haunted house and the Scare Crow holding a "welcome" sign; and Nathaniel's Spider. He also traced my Witch but I did the carving. Not bad for my first (almost) solo pumpkin carving! The Texas heat weren't gentle to them but they were really cool while they lasted! We also roasted the pumkin seeds and they were soooo delicious.
