I was so inspired by your initialed one and since this is our first Halloween as husband and wife, it seemed just perfect. Please take a look at it! http://www.flickr.com/photos/karolynah/4071576443/ Hey guys, just wanted to share a photo of the pumpkin my husband and I carved this weekend.

We actually saw a carving tool kit that came with a little rolling-perforator so you could create the effect Lisa described. It was twice the price of the $2 kit we bought (I know, gasp) so I guess I was just being a cheapskate. <br> Jenn, we'll try to snag some shots of these glowing for you at night. I'll admit we had trouble getting them to come out nicely. And half of vamh, thanks for the link to Eddie's blog. Little did he know that could just buy white pumpkins (Cindy, they were the same price as the orange ones). And I do love Eddie's idea of using a drill. I was this close to breaking my out for some of the smaller parts. <br> Bravo to Sara's husband for the stellar Obama pumpkin. If you guys are looking for more Barack carvings, check out <a href="http://yeswecarve.com/" rel="nofollow">Yes We Carve</a>. It's pretty fun to see how politics can fuel people's creative juices. <br> In case I forget later, Happy Halloween everyone! <br> -John

Although, I'm having flash backs to why John always made me feel like an inadequate pumpkin carver when we were growing up... These are amazing!

Are white pumpkins more expensive than a regular orange one? I haven't seen them actually in the grocery store we go to... Great job doing turning something so traditional into something that fits your personalities!! Very cute. Are white pumpkins more expensive than a regular orange one?
