Pumpkin guts

Today was an exciting day.
Even Faith was full of anticipation.
Grace was ready with her bucket and shovel.
She told us repeatedly, "Don't worry.  It's my job!  I do it!"
And then she saw the inside of our giant pumpking.
And decided Daddy could do it instead.
She allowed him to put some of the pumpkin guts in her bucket.
Eventually she helped scoop some out.
Big pumpkins have impressive amounts of guts.
We ended up with over 8 cups full...
We filled that pitcher many times.
Grace liked moving the guts from one container to another.
But she didn't like touching it with her hands.  It was too "goopy."
Chloe cleaned up anything we dropped on the floor.  Good Chloe!
And I sorted out the seeds.
We love roasted pumpkin seeds.
We ended up with just over 2 cups full of seeds.  Yum!
