Every year the girls complain about how gross it is and the smell- yet I forget. And then the next Halloween comes around and we get pumpkins, the kids are all excited about carving them- and then after that first cut... the complaining begins all over again. And I remember what it was like the previous Halloween. I then question why this is one of our traditions
Kwynn stuck kleenex up her nose because the smell was "repulsive and putrid" (what a vocabulary that kid has!).
Corynn had to have latex gloves or she wasn't going to help. "Its not right, mom!" - was her explanation.
Kynna- for the most part did really good! You could tell she didn't like cleaning the pumpkin any more than her sisters- but she stuck it out.
I ended up doing most of the cleaning- the carving was fun and the kids were hilarious. Kwynn with her homemade noseplugs and Puka with her three sizes too big latex gloves and Kynna's brave face. The conversation was fun and we had a good time. And I now remember why its one of our traditions.
Here they are...
Puka's is an owl
Kwynn's is a mouse
Kynna's is a scary jack-o-lantern
and the one on the end is mine- just being silly
