Pumpkin Carving 2002
|
Every year for the past five or six years, Lane and I have had a pumpkin carving party. It's a lot of kiddie fun for grown folks, and we really love it. I hope you enjoy these photos from this year's adventures in mid-October.

| Jason, sucking down the cancer stick. I love this photo, because I can totally see Jason's spirit in the expression on his face. |

| John's probably going to kill me for putting this online, but I am! I LOVE this photo - Lane took it - Lane took most of these, I think (I got some sent in from both John and from JR). It's like, SURPRISE, PUMPKIN!!! Sorry, John! (John reports via email: I AM going to KILL you for putting that photo up..) |

| This is Alisa, Bill and Alex (Alisa's boyfriend). I love this photo because of the way Alisa is holding the knife and the way Alex is looking at her! She's just STABBING the pumpkin!! You GO Alisa! |

| Lane's giant monster pumpkin! It weighed 81 lbs before it was carved. I get all my pumpkins at Natal's Produce in Luling. They handpick all their pumpkins and they are GREAT and CHEAP! Very worth the trip. If you go, tell Joey that Dana sent you. We went to high school together and play catch up every year when I go buy pumpkins for the party. |

| Michael's pumpkin, and below, Michael and Lois working on their pumpkins. (It appears to be the curse of the pumpkin carving party that it rains and rains and rains, so we end up carving in the garage all the time. What fun, right? Clean the whole house and get the yard in shape only to be in the garage among the laundry and the lawn mower!! We don't skimp on glamour in our household, let me tell you!!) |

| Lane's and my pumpkins (plus one we don't know where it came from!) in the light. Isn't his HUGE?!?! |

| Tim and his pumpkin. |

|
| Sondra and Fran, taking advantage of the brief pause in the rain! Dig Sondra's hat. She got me one, too! Too bad there aren't any photos of it! :) |

| My pumpkin. The top photo is from the INSIDE of the pumpkin. Isn't Lane clever? The others are from the front, at different angles and exposures! Rarrrrrrrr, fear the alien!!! |
