Meet Jack... Jack O' Lantern

The Mueller family has a tradition to get together the Monday night before Halloween to carve pumpkins. In years past, we did this at our house. But the year my Dad decided to bring a drill and spray pumpkin all over my kitchen--I decided enough was enough. We have since moved the party to my parent's garage (which by the way--it clean enough to eat off the floor.) My Mom made delicious dinner-sloppy joes, veggie, witches brew (root beer) and all sorts of goodies. Zak is a pretty intense pumpkin carver--always trying to outdo himself from the year before. He made Brutus the Buckeye (Ohio State Mascot) this year. He free handed it himself, very impressive.The kids love scooping the "guts" and running around being crazy! My Mom changed things up abit this year--wearing her DARLING witch costume and being in character all night long! Thanks family for the fun memories and perfect-o pumpkins!
