    we did a pumking carving evening earlier this week as a family, had a great time! My youngest kids did their own this year, and they did a nice job! I helped my oldest son, who is autistic, who happens to like Snoopy. Found a pic on the web, drew it freehand and used a small exact knife. Anyone else do pumpkin carving?

    Tell the kids they did a great job!

    I miss these types of activities. :( Our daughter still carves pumpkins even though she's all grew up but she lives in another state :picard:.
