This past Saturday we carved our annual Saint-O-Lanterns! We almost didn’t do it this year (we missed getting to the pumpkin patch before they closed for the season and I hadn’t purchase any pumpkins) but on Friday night I went out grocery shopping and was able to get some carving pumpkins at Trader Joe’s. I’m glad we made the effort. It’s always messy and stressful so much fun!

I really like the St. Benedict one.
These are amazing! Such a joy to see their reactions to the inner gloop! Thank you so much for sharing here, as I'm not on Instagram.
Great job by all.

Where did you get your girls denim skirts?
I've gotten so many emails and messages asking about the girls skirts that I should probably put together a post with links to ones we have purchased lately! 🙂

What a beautiful job! Thanks for so many ideas! Where did you get the image of San Martin?
Thank you!
This was a couple years ago now but I think we did an image search for “St. Martin Clipart Silhouette” and then my son made a couple little modifications (add the helmet).
