On Friday my friends and I got together to carve pumpkins. For some reason I had never carved a pumpkin, so I was pretty excited! My friend Julia and I went to the grocery store to pick out pumpkins, but I wasn't sure whether I should get a big pumpkin or a small pumpkin, so I decided to get a small pumpkin just because it seemed like a better idea. Julia and I went to our friend Aleah's house to meet up with her and our friend Alex. Alex laughed at mine and Julia's pumpkins because they were so little. The first thing we did was cut the tops of our pumpkins off so they fit like lids. Then, we had to take out all of the seeds and clean the insides out. This was the part that was the messiest part, and I feel like I wasn't able to even fully clean mine out. Lastly we carved faces into them. This was the part I struggled with the MOST. My little triangle eyes came out lopsided and the mouth just looked awkwardly not like a mouth, but I improvised. It was a fun experience even though my pumpkin came out looking a little funny. 

(The bigger pumpkin was heavy, hence my facial expression)
