They don't really celebrate Halloween here as the would be "worshiping the devil" so the closest we get is carving pumpkins. So this weekend we decided to have a friendly pumpkin carving competition between the boys and girls. The rules were that Sam could help the girls with one pumpkin and I could help the boys with one pumpkin. Then the kids had to carve a second pumpkin all by themselves. The pumpkin that the kids carved by themselves would then be judged by a third party. Our judge was Bruce. He is an older gentleman from Canada.

| The Girls pumpkins, Sam carved the one on the right. The Micky Mouse was the one to be judged. |

| The boys pumpkins, I carved the one on the right. I know, I'm terrible. |
The winning house got Coke to drink for the prize. Before they were judged I figured the girls won by a landslide however, our judge liked the boys better because it was more of a classic looking pumpkin. I felt bad though because the girls was obviously better (to me anyway) so I gave them some coke as well.

Haha, I would have said the girls won too! Glad they got a coke! I was really impressed with Sam's pumpkin! Was it the little monster from Monster's Inc.?
Both are impressive. Did they freehand those? My guess is yours was :)
Great pics and looks like they had fun but... I do think the girls were the winners. :)
Those pumpkins look really good! Very impressive! It looks like you guys had a great time! And I see that you found orange pumpkins this year! lol I bet love doing that!
