Get out your tools, it’s Pumpkin Carving Time! This post may contain affiliate links to help run this fabulous blog.
Every year, I have the joy of being the pumpkin carver. I am the only willing to de-gut the thing and, over the years, I have come to enjoy the carving itself. We have had some pretty fun Jack-o-Laterns in the past few years!
