Last year’s pumpkin was such a success. The kids that came by loved it.

I decided since I’m a master carver now (NOT) that I would not only carve a pumpkin but I would create my own pattern. I did 2 pumpkins this year. Not sure why but it seemed like a good idea at the time.

I wanted to do a Senators pumpkin. I took the logo and stretched it until I had the correct size. I printed off several copies and made my pattern. This picture was taken before I had completely finished. I forgot to take one of the final version. It turned out OK.

I did a simple one layer carved pumpkin with the second one. I had spent hours on the first and ran out of energy for it.

I got a lot of compliments on the pumpkins and some kids had come with their friends this year to see what I had done.

What had I done? Now they will expect them every year!
