"We couldn't wait for it to happen," said elated Lisa Thompson, who came last year and returned with her husband, Chris, daughter Maya, 5, who loves to carve the eyes, and son, C.J., 4, who likes to put in the candle, bringing the pumpkin to life. "We all love pumpkins, I even cook the family pumpkin pancakes."

Bella Terra, 7777 Edinger, provided free pumpkins, carving devices, decorative materials and even aids on just how to create your finest pumpkin face.

"We had 50 participants last year and more than six times that this year. It's a great way to welcome in the Halloween season," said Cole Sako, Bella Terra's Marketing Director. "The Pavilion is a terrific spot for pumpkin carvings and other events." It's near some new businesses, such as Sweet XO, Nectar Juice Bar, Old Navy, Eureka!, and Solita Tacos & Margaritas.

This year's pumpkin carving is something the families will never forget, until next year's.
