Every year we have a party around Halloween and carve some pumpkins. Normally knives and drinking don't go well together and this year was no exception.

This year was even bigger and we started out with a bigger pumpkin patch than ever!

As I said really well done. The one on the left was drawn freehand and slowly peeled parts away with a potato peeler. The one on the right was done from a template but still looks great.... cheater.
