For FHE, we carved a pumpkin to show off at our ward Halloween activity this Saturday. I was the mom last year when our group won the pumpkin contest, so we had to come up with something awesome again. We are creating the death star from Star Wars, and it won't be carved all the way through, more like sculpted part-ways.
One of the guys in our group carves wood and metal, so he had lots of power tools. We used them to carve on our lines we drew. Basically, it was an awesome new way I have never carved pumpkins before. It was like taking a dentist's mouth drill to a pumpkin--really fun!
Although, I wish we would have played some Halloween music to make it more officially Halloween time. When I mention it up here, almost everyone asks "what
is Halloween music?" and then thinks I am weird for listening to creepy music to get into holiday spirit. What were they raised on?? So I went home and made a "Carving Pumpkins" playlist so the next time I carve pumpkins, I will be prepared! Please feel free to refer to this playlist for your own family Halloween party, FHE, carving of pumpkins,etc.
