Carving Pumpkins

On Saturday before Halloween, we carved our pumpkins as tradition dictates.  Here we have MO with his creativity at work!



And now here is Emma:



And also Benjamin:



The kids did a great job on their pumpkins!



I separated out the pumpkins seeds and prepared some pumpkin seeds to eat.  I boiled the seeds in salty water for about 10 minutes.  They I put them on a cookie sheet and sprinkled a mixture of seasoning on them.  They went into the oven at 400 degrees for a good 15-20 minutes until brown.  Some got a little too brown.  Yet, they were yummy!
