John loves carving pumpkins, and this year, PJ was VERY happy to help Daddy carve his Buzz Lightyear pumpkin.
PJ very intently helping Daddy with the outline of Buzz.
At some point, PJ decided watching Daddy do the carving was boring, so he ended up "carving" his own mini pumpkin by repeatedly poking it with one of the carving tools that he promised to be careful with.

It's so awesome to see my husband and my little guy sharing this together. Just hanging out, starting a tradition that no doubt Maggie will start participating in next year. I didn't have many family traditions as a kid, and I don't want PJ and Maggie to feel that way when they are older. This is the first of many, many traditions we have started and will continue to start.
And in case you were wondering, here's the finished product:
John's pretty awesome. :)
Ever seen this guy?

Wow!!! Very impressive!! And such a sweet memory he's creating with your son!!
ReplyDeleteMy little twins both wanted Superhero logos which were pretty easy for me to do but Cole wanted Pikachu from Pokemon and there was no way I was gonna even attempt it. I could just see me totally ruining his pumpkin! So I let Tim do it and he actually did a pretty nice job with it!
We didn't have any family traditions either so I'm always eager to make as many traditions as I can with my kids!!
Wow, that looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteAwww they did a great job!
ReplyDeleteThat is one impressive looking carved pumpkin I must say! He has talent!
ReplyDeleteThat is very impressive!
ReplyDeleteWe haven't gotten around to the pumpkin carving yet. I am inspired now!
ReplyDeleteThat's so cute!! We went to the Pumpkin Patch and carved pumpkins every single year. It is a great memory, even if they weren't professional like your husband's :-)
ReplyDeleteThat IS pretty awesome! We're working on ours this weekend, but I doubt it will be anything like THIS!
