Taking Out Seeds, Cutting out Eyes and Mouth, and Decorating the Pumpkin

The Pumpkin Carving event at the Rose House Dining Hall was entertaining because I have never carved a pumpkin before. We were all given a large plastic trash bag, markers, and utensils to decorate our pumpkins. All the pumpkins were in a cart. I chose a horizontally large pumpkin to work on with my friends. We needed to carve out the stem, so it took two sharp utensils and all the people in our group to carve it out. The most time consuming task was to take out all the seeds, which my friend did a great job at. I was surprised that a pumpkin had many seeds and that pumpkin carving was not easy at all. Two of my other friends and I carved out the eyes and mouth as well as decorated the pumpkin with markers. Although it was the first time carving a pumpkin for my friends and I, we were satisfied with our creation because it was colorful and unique.
