Being the sharing sister I am I let Broski and the boys do all the pumpkin gut cleaning, while I went in search on the internet for a skeleton template for Animals pumpkin.
Animal is quite good at sharing too. After one hand inserted into that gooey squashy mess he decided to let his Uncle do all the cleaning.
Q-tip was quite a bit more hands on.
I cant say this was Broski's favorite part but he was an awesome sport. Notice how enthused he looks and how encouraging Animal is. Talking his Uncle through.
He was willing to feel around for any stray bits after it was all cleaned out.
Q-tip did get some help as well.
Animal and I went in cahoots to work on his pumpkin. After printing up a photo I used the punching holes technique to create the image on the pumpkin.
Q-tip and Broski had a better stencil I printed and they went for the cutting out and tracing technique. Q-tip is holding the image I used as a stencil for Animals pumpkin.
Animal would cut a little although I did most of the carving. He liked to get the cut out bits from inside the pumpkin.
Working together on the carving.
The finished projects: A reaper and a skeleton.
Pumpkin carving is such an odd, yet fun tradition! I kept laughing at all the pics of Animal and your brother! So glad he was able to hang out and help get all the guts out!!
