Show us your pumpkin!

I am a very sad individual and decided to carve a pumpkin for the first time today. I know some of you will be green with jealousy, since I obviously am extremely talented (picture below is proof!), but don't let it stop you and show us your effort!

I can't help it if I have a gift. :cool2:

    Very good :T

    This is the first year since my son was born (14 years) that I haven't bought a pumpkin :(

    Did manage to stick some ghost stickers to the window to welcome the trick and treaters though :cool:
