This is Marie and me at the pumpkin carving FHE. Marie drove and bought me a pumpkin too. SOOO NICE! I won a prize tonight for "simplest Jack O' Lantern". Simple as in uncomplicated I hope, and not in that it is not too bright. It is right now perched on my window ledge. I won a bag of peanut M&M's. FANCY!! I have a few secrets for carving a simple JOL*. Use a small pumpkin, use an apple corer, and make a hole in the bottom to remove the seeds. Then you sit the pumpkin over the candle, no messy top to worry about removing. TA-DA! I placed a single seed via a bit of gum under an eye for a tear. A sad JOL. *JOL short for Jack O'Lantern

Darling image. I admire the color of the velvet curtain. Your JOL is mighty and tiny. I normally only celebrate Halloween with candy, candy, candy. I will look into a less sugar-laden festivity.
I'm glad you decided to both come and carve -- your company is always delightful and I learned many useful tips from you that will be employed in all my future pumpkin carving ventures...once I get myself an apple corer.....
Danielle came to church today...actually, I saw her in the temple while working on Saturday. I was so busy, we had quite a complicated session (one that you would have loved to coordinate...all the while I was thinking you would have loved to solve this dilema) I saw her at the very end and then went and found her when I was finished. It sure was fun visiting with her. How fun that you see her all the time!
