Happy Halloween!

Well, the Calendar has rolled around to my favorite holiday of the year, Halloween. I thought I would share my carved pumpkins with you to get you in the spirit! First we have the "I tried for an evil pumpkin but it looks goofy instead." Interestingly enough this is the one that is rotting the fastest. (note: the spooky blue light on the right is a laptop, not a ghost)
This pumpkin wouldn't stand up so I had to go with a sideways one. My mother insists this one is her favorite because it's "so adorable!"
Now we have the (Sock) Monkey pumpkin. I carved this one mainly because I love sock monkeys. (I recently got Sock Monkey slippers. They ROCK!) (That and to annoy my sister. she had a bad experience with my sock monkey and his tail)

Now we have the "Lightning Storm" pumpkin. I'm a big weather nut and thought I would try something different this year. This one looks super cool lit up, but I couldn't manage to get a good picture of it.
Last but not least, we have the "Cannibal Pumpkin" Note the pumpkin gut brains oozing from the baby pumpkin.
Well, those are the pumpkins. Happy Halloween Everyone!
