Chris and I have created a tradition of holding a pumpkin carving contest, just the two of us, each Halloween. It gets ugly. The smack talking starts early and is brutal. This year was no exception.
I fear I lost this year, as it took FOREVER to carve my huge pumpkin, and I grew frustrated. The pumpkin walls were very thick and our little carving tools did not go all the way through. Due to my novice cleaning of the pumpkin, I essentially had to carve it twice - once on the service and then again to cut all the way through. Chris was able to carve TWO pumpkins in the same amount of time it took me to do one. 
Regardless, it was a wonderful way to spend an evening, and we are still munching on four varieties of roasted pumpkin seeds. Too bad we had ZERO visitors seeking candy on Halloween.

You guys are so creative. I carved a pumpkin but it was the size of a small bowl. Haha.
Wow, very impressive! Smack down talk, eh? I wish I'd been a fly on the wall to hear that.....
