Carving Out Some Family Fun!

Does anyone else just LOVE Fall? I do. I love everything about it. Especially.....carving pumpkins. This has always been a pre-Halloween must-do for my husband and I!

This was our first attempt at carving pumpkins together...

(in case you didn't know...our last name is Castle)

...and I think it was the best so far!

I thought it would be fun to hold a Pumpkin Carving Contest to be judged by YOU right here on this blog!

I hope you'll all join in! Here are some more specific details:

1. Email a picture of a pumpkin that you/your family has carved (this can be from year's past... it just has to be YOURS!)

2. Contest runs Oct. 1 - 25. All submissions will be posted on this blog from Oct. 26 - 30 to be judged/voted on. Winner will be announced Oct. 31.

3. Winner will receive a Personalized Rubik's Cube. (Winner must email me 6 digital images which I will use to create the rubik's cube like the one below...)



Submit your Pumpkin Pictures to: ccloveactually @ gmail.com

What are you waiting for?
Hit the pumpkin patch and get carving!

Let the contest begin!

  1. This is such a fun idea. And since I had NEVER carved a pumpkin in my life it is on my to-do list this year. I'm hoping to host a pumpkin carving party with my neighbors soon. I think that would be so fun.

  6. Well....I can't really say. It's all of YOU who vote. It's whatever the followers vote on...romantic, cute, creative--whatever! I haven't set any specific standard. Hanging out as a family is all I really care about!!
