I finally carved my very first pumpkin! Yes, it’s hard to believe I’ve never done it before, but it’s true.

We went to pick our pumpkins at the pumpkin patch after school. It was quite an adventure. Especially when Meg fell and scraped her knee. A traumatic event indeed. Fortunately we survived after some Neosporin and a big bandaid.

After some image googling, I found exactly what I wanted. “It’s so me!” I said with a grin on my face. Then I was off to begin the painstakingly labourious process. I was grateful for my ever patient, helpful and sweet friend who provided me with assistance in removing the goop and yuckiness inside the pumpkin. So began the carving, and here is the final result.
