Logan's First Jack-O-Latern

Logan helped his Papa and Pepe plant a garden at the beginning of the summer.  One of the things that were planted was pumpkin seeds.  The pumpkin vines produced five pumpkins.  One was Logan's.  His Pepe brought over the pumpkin so Logan could carve it.  Typically Logan chooses a stencil and "Steve" carves the pumpkin.  This year was Logans first year carving his own Jack-O-Lantern.  He was very excited.  He started with gutting the thing. 

This picture is an illusion, he HATED the feeling of the pumpkin guts. 

After an hour of sawing on the pumpkin the end result was a cat.  Doesn't it look exactly like a cat?
Logan did a happy, "Thank you for letting me carve my own Jack-O-Latern." song and dance. 


After the carving event we went outside to display the work of art and discovered it was a beautiful night.  "Steve" took  the opportunity to rake some leaves.  Logan ran through them, and "Steve" raked them again.  It went on like that for a while, but they were having fun.  The video is pretty dark, but you don't have to watch it.
