A Monster Pumpkin Named Pirate


We ended up carving our pumpkin today, as planned. It went really well and I'm very impressed with Josh's handiwork. We ate dinner in the (mostly) dark just so we could admire the once pumpkin, now jack-o-lantern. We also gave Tillman an opportunity to name the pumpkin. When we first started throwing out ideas of what to carve, she wanted a pirate. Well, Josh looked in to getting a pirate template, but they were either too detailed or cost $. So, we ended up going with a really cute monster instead. (Tillman's birthday party theme is monsters, for those who don't know...) Anyways, when given the chance to name the pumpkin, she came up with, "Monster Pirate". I guess she really did want a pirate pumpkin. So, without further ado...
 
 
While Josh was carving the pumpkin, Tillman took one of the excess pieces, put a toothpick in it, and said, "Look, Daddy, birthday cake." Then she proceeded to "blow out the candle." A very proud Daddy moment. - creativity

We are so proud of her and are completely bias in all that she does!

A close-up ... I love it!

T running around crazy before bed. She was in the basket before I took the picture.

I think it's fair to say she had a very good day today. She was in such a good mood!
