The Mouth Alone Took An Hour

We decorate our tree on Christmas Eve. We carve our pumpkin on Halloween Eve. We won't be participating in any dishing out of candies tho, as we will be neck deep in pageantry at J. Birney Crum. That's fine tho, considering how we got pillaged by a group of teenagers in costumes of questionable effort last year. Ripped jeans are not a costume, unless everyday is Halloween. What kids'll do for a mini Snickers. Oh glorious Halloween.

So we carved. The innards always make for a good photo.

Laura froze them so over the next year she can add pumpkin to every meal. I can't wait for pumpkin spaghetti, pumpkin pancakes, and pumpkin seed sandwich on rye with mayonnaise. Sorry Miracle Whip. Mmmmmmm.

This little kitten pretty much named herself last night when she decided to exhibit her insatiable appetite for anything pumpkin.

We couldn't keep her away. So she will known as Peterpeter. We'll see if that sticks.

And now, without any further ado... our Halloween Travis-&-Laura-O-Lantern for the '09.

I don't really even remember carving it. I must've been in the zone. Here's a few closeup shots, enlarged to show detail.
