Tonights the Night!

Our family has created a very fun family tradition.  For the past four years we have had a pumpkin carving championship between each of our individual families.  You can see last years pumpkins HERE.  Well, tonight is the night when carve our pumpkins.  Here are a few of the rules:

1.  All carving has to be done at Grammy & Pops house. Any prep work can be done (painting, gathering props, etc) prior to the event but the pumpkin has to arrive as a solid.

2.  You have to get your pumpkin finished before the end of the night.  We usually start at 5:00 ish and end around 10 pm.

3.  Everyone gets to vote...including our specials judges Kelli, Kelley, Jason, Jacinda, and their friends.  We usually try to have the judges vote prior to learning who's pumpkin is who. 

4. The pumpkin with the most votes wins. 

You might ask what the prize is...well it is a family photo frame trophy that you get to display in your house for an entire year and the TITLE of pumpkin champion.  Really it is just an excuse to get together and have some good. clean fun.

Well, come back on November 2nd to see our 2010 pumpkins and find out the winner!
