  Minecraft Pumpkin Designs I'm not much of a gamer, but several of my friends are. This stencil of Minecraft's Creeper may be just what they have in mind for their Halloween pumpkin carving project.  This link have this gamer stencil and many others:   21 Nerdtastic Video Game Pumpkin Carvings You Can DIY This Halloween (gameskinny.com) Happy Halloween!

  Goosebumps Pumpkin Carving This carving for Slappy from Goosebumps looks a little more difficult than I usually tackle, but you might decide it is easy enough when you see the stencil. The Goosebumps movie was a few years back and I never read the books, but it is still recognizable.  See this link for the stencil:   Pop Culture Pumpkins for 2018 [Printables] - HalloweenCostumes.com Blog Happy Halloween!

  Easy Star Wars Pumpkin Carving Ideas I have hosted Halloween pumpkin carving parties for years now and they have always been a great time and easy to setup. My post-covid Halloween pumpkin carving party is next week and I've been researching ideas. Star Wars is a pretty popular theme. This site has some ideas that look pretty easy to carve plus there are expert options as well. 20+ Easy Star Wars Pumpkin Carving Patterns (theurbandecor.com) Quick Tip: Have everyone bring their own pumpkins. Don't even think about buying everyone's pumpkin for them. Half the fun is for them to find the perfect pumpkin for themselves. 

  Witch on a Broom Pumpkin Carving I am getting ready for our first post-covid Halloween Pumpkin Carving Party and am looking up ideas before it gets here. The witch on a broom looks fairly simple. I found this website with the stencil and directions. I might could do this freehand, but instructions never hurt.

Carving pumpkins was another big hit this year. The weather was perfect. The sunset was inspiring. Who all made the party this year? Let's see. There was Jason, Sammy, Chris, Tracy, Mike, Maureen, Ken, Pam, Tod, Casey, Taylor, Avery, Kevin and me (Noah!). We ended up with eight carved pumpkins. Sammy did the Mickey pumpkin. Tod did the heart with a knife in it pumpkin. Maureen did the happy pumpkin. Pam did the small pumpkin with the stars for eyes. I did the big pumpkin with the big mouth and x's for eyes. Ken did one of the small pumpkins. Chris did the pumpkin with the zigzag mouth. Taylor did the pumpkin (hidden in the group photo thanks to Tod) with the snazzy eyelashes. Everybody had a great time and we only wished more people could have joined us. Let's do this again next year!
