La Nuit de la Citrouille

Sorry for not blogging for so long... Haven't much felt like it. The fact that I'm stuck in Burlington, Iowa doesn't help much. There's not too much going on out here that's really worth blogging about... That is, until now!!
Bam!! Pumpkin carving night!! Who knows how to have fun? Steve does.
See the excitement? Yea, it's coursing through my veins right here. Actually had to sit down and crank a beer to calm myself. The only bad thing about the evening was that I've been unable to find Sam Adams Octoberfest out here. I've been to 3 places, and each has been sold out! I had to settle for the Cherry Wheat tonight... Just wasn't the same. A great pumpkin can only be carved with the accompaniment of a delicious Octoberfest.
I got over the lack of Octoberfest soon as the first cut was made.

Marc's thrilled to begin the creation process!
Proud fathers.

Yea I know, you afraid. Yea I know, I'm a loser. Especially for adding in the music. Can't help it, Halloween was on while carving. Anyways, I have to be up in all of 4 hours for work.

Au revoir!

I have to admit that is one bad-ass pumpkin. My carved pumpkins usually consist of three triangles and an oval mouth. If I'm really feeling creative I throw in a jagged snaggle-tooth in the oval mouth. Well Done...

Hold on a second dude. Are those black and orange pics of the pumpkins that you carved?
