Pumpkin Dinner and Carving

Mark had a work meeting the week of Halloween. He was gone Tuesday and didn't get home until the day of Halloween.Typically we have our traditional dinner the night before or on Halloween night.  Since he was going to be gone, I decided we should have it the weekend before. Sunday night we dined on cauliflower soup, salad, pumpkin rolls, and pumpkin cake.
 Emmrey brought Harry Truman from 2nd grade to visit our family for the weekend so he joined in the festivities.
With our pumpkins in possession, we got right to carving them the following night. Each of the girls had their own design plan. The tongue must come out in times of concentration.
 Kars wanted a more elaborate design ...so she opted not to freehand

 Look at all those pumpkin carvers. We had The Munsters playing in the background. I had almost forgot about that show until the girls asked about it.
