Pumpkins!!!!!

[SeeAMoose]

For the record... I love pumpkins. This being the only time of year where it is socially acceptable to play with or even talk about pumpkins, I would like to share my passion.

I took over carving my family's pumpkins back in 2008 and have handled them every year except last year (when I was working in a different state). This year I plan to go way the hell overboard. Earlier today I spent over 3 hours carving one pumpkin and I have at least one more (even more complicated) design that I WILL do.

So without further ado, I present you with:

Note: This one was an artificial pumpkin, they're kind of awesome because you can use them year after year... but the good ones are really expensive.

MORE PUMPKINS

(Okay I'll admit this one I used a template for, but only because my mom wanted a bat and I didn't want to design one. Using the other bat template on the back so that it would project out was all me though)

And then the one I'm really proud of. It started as this sketch:

Which turned into this:



And it looks like this when it's lit up with two extra large candles:

Cool pumpkins! Always cool to see people following their interests.
