Ye of little faith, Behold.....The Pug-kin!




So there's one thing the momma just can't resist.......a Challenge!     She can't stand hearing "That can't be done"   and especially   "....can't be done by her........ which is about a million times worse!


So she got her pumpkin on, and got her tools ready:


There were lots of pumpkin guts:



But her trusty assistant #2 was there to lend a hand:




And after LOTS of scraping and marking and carving, the pumpkin began to take shape:




Using her surgical skill (and tools) it was finally done!




And then it was time for the photo shoot:



(This fine photo could not have been taken without the help of #3, thanks, cupcake!)




Who said it couldn't be done?
Hah!

Wow! This is amazing...we think your Mom and her assistant did a great job. Our Mom can barely carve a regular face on a pumpkin. We love your pug'kin!

Oh how fantastic! Was it very hard to do? I really was thinking of doing that this year. I still have my old tools, somewhere, I think. I really miss my scalpel.

I can't wait to see it all lit up. Be sure you take a pic and show us.

WOOWWWW that's AMAZING! I've never brought a pumpkin and much less carved one! you got it perfect!

BRUTUS said...

Whoa!! That is fantastic! What skill and patience you momma must have to carve your likeness into a pumpkin! We haven't even gotten a pumpkin yet, but if we even manage to carve a toothy grin into it, that'll be something!!
