Carving Pumpkins....

Halloween kinda snuck up on us this year.  We did our annual pumpkin patch trip to pick out the perfect pumpkins but didn't get around to carving them til last minute!  So...we gathered all our pumpkin carving necessities and headed to Beema and Papa Joe's for our regular Sunday night dinner with an added after dinner activity of Pumpkin carving!!
