Grandpa Avery (who lives in South Africa) wanted to carve pumpkins with the boys, so that's exactly what we did yesterday after church. Grandpa has an unexpected stay in the States due to a blockage the doctors found last week and we are praying that he gets better quickly! Our boys are just excited to have him here. So, after church we got three huge pumpkins and set out for the fun adventure. We had to put Joshua down for his afternoon nap, so Jackson got some undivided attention. Jackson still didn't want to touch the slimy seeds, but he did put his hand inside the pumpkin several times and pulled out the pieces that fell in from the carving and he also did some scraping with his fancy scraper tool!! He really enjoyed carving pumpkins!! This time we tried using some templates and they turned out great!! Enjoy all the pictures!! Joshua eventually woke up and was able to partake in some of the fun! Glad you woke up and could have some fun with us, Joshua! Yay, Joshua!!
Three generations of Avery men, enjoying the fun of pumpkin carving!
Grandpa can do all the slimy work!
Jackson reached in to pull out the pieces that fell in! Good job, Jackson!!
Jackson liked using the scraping tool to work on the pumpkin.
Here's one of the finished pumpkins! Isn't that so cool?! Cute Pumpkin! Great job!
Joshua woke up and enjoyed being a part of the fun activities!
Hello, Sleepy Boy Joshua!
