MC’s Jack-O-lantern

I didn’t get any photos of the actual process, but we decided to carve Mary Clare’s pumpkin yesterday.  She surprised me by not wanting anything to do with the “insides” of the pumpkin this year.  She let McCanless handle the scooping, while she told me exactly what to carve and how to carve it.   “One tooth here, and one there…triangle eye here and there…and no nose.”  I did exactly as she told me and her little pumpkin turned out pretty cute.  (By the way, although her smile is similar to that of her own jack-o-lantern missing a few teeth up front, she isn’t missing any in the back nor does she have fillings.  It looks like someone had a Hershey kiss or two just before I snapped these photos.)
