Carving a Pumpkin

 Since we didn't trick or treat, we decided we would spend the evening ( after church) carving a pumpkin.

The kids were very excited, and kept getting a little to close to the sharp knife I was using. It was a lot of fun. Clara loved every minute of it, until we lit the candle and turned the lights off.  Then she cried, and cried, and cried, and cried. And she continued to cry until we put the pumpkin outside, down the stairs, and totally out of sight. And still everytime she sees a pumpkin (ANYWHERE) she is instantly upset.
