The fall season is here and The Koopalings decide to go to a Pumpkin patch to pick out some Pumpkins for their Pumpkin Carving Contest! The Koopalings were s. Carson and I crossed the second item off of my bucketlist yesterday! Pumpkin Carving!!! As you can see, our pumpkins look pretty good. Dont be fooled though, we used stencils! (Neither of us are THAT artistically gifted) I found my VIneyard VInes stencil online and printed it out.
2020 is slowly coming to an end (much to my personal delight!) and what better way to celebrate than a bit of ol' pumpkin carving! This year I'm hoping for some terrifying designs that I can steal to scare folks away from my front door - social distancing is of course still very important and I just plain don't like sharing candy...
