this was the beginning... going pretty well so far except for that fact that I have chosen the hardest, unripe pumpkins in parker county...
still going well... Christopher's stronger partner got the job done pretty quick...
then, nate's pumpkin's face caved in when Daddy tried to finish it, i think by that time i just had a part of a mouth...so....
everyone got a sucker at 9 o'clock (this was taking way longer than I thought) and we all laughed and laughed at Nates' pumpkin... surprisingly enough we were laughing because it looked like a fish mouth and asked him if he wanted to keep a "fish mouth" pumpkin... was worth the try right? 
Christopher got bored and added "hair" to his... so christopher... my little builder!...
this is right before he lost his face...
chris did an "ace of cakes" ~ got out the bamboo skewers and went to work!...
ta da!!
at 9:45 we lit them and put them outside... whew!
.i think we'll always remember these jack o lanterns... and the little punkins who had so much fun... chris & I may have had more fun just watching them!
