4th Annual Pumpkin Carving Party


Fun was had by all at the Zelenka residence. Dan and I always look forward to this party each year. Yes, friendly competition takes place which is fun, but Dan and I love the process that we must go through to come up with that perfect plan. Last year we were unable to attend, which dissapointed us so ( but it gave others the chance to win). So we knew this year that we had to come back with a great idea! We had some trouble to be honest- it is hard to keep topping the previous year. We didn't decide what we were going to do until the day before the party when we were standing at the pumpkin patch wondering which pumpkin we were going to choose. We were going between two ideas. I guess we picked the right one, we brought "the Most Original" ribbon home. I think some of the other participants, those that have been around for a while especially, did not appreciate our win because we were two hours late for the party (thanks for waiting to judge Joe!) Some say we were still figuring out our idea, but really it was because we had a very important phone call. So anyway, we look forward to our friendly competition next year!
