Carving a pumpkin is just as much a tradition of Halloween as trick or treating. A few days ago the idea came up to have a staff carving contest!

I began to think about a design, the look. Should I go with a spooky and mean looking pumpkin? Maybe a goofy and friendly face? I went the friendly angle. The face says 'hey, hey... it's Halloween!' Well, that's what I get out of it.

Take a look below and let me know if you like it. Now, my 2013 Townsquare Media Tuscaloosa Pumpkin Carving Contest entry! Boo! That's boo as in trying to mimic a ghost and be scary, not to self-disapprove my entry. Just to clear that up. Okay, on to the photos.
