Oktoberfest

The gem behind Gem Lakes is our recreation area, in addition to a fun neighborhood board who puts on all kinds of family gatherings for us.  This weekend it was about brats, beer and pumpkin carving.



Oktoberfest 2012 Gem Lakes


Music, dancing and picking out the perfect pumpkin for carving.

Carving with a beverage break every here and now

(Can you tell we are working on potty training?)

Everyone taking their places and getting ready for the contest

Realizing that folks came VERY prepared for this contest...hand saws, elaborate scrappers, LED colored lights, etching tools, pattern tracers, etc.

Next year we will be ready with a cordless drill and big spoon.  Maybe even a jigsaw and reciprocating saw.
