Sorry I thought that was clear. Angela guessed 16 and the number is greater than that. Everyone else guess 32 and up. It is less than 32. Now you guessed 18 which bumps Angela from the low spot. That means the magical number is between 18 and 32. I don't know how I could make it more clear. Unless... if you take Angela's guess and ...... Never mind.

We have a winner.

I bring home a jeep full of them. I then set up some tables in the front yard and go for it. I carved 6 and each of my two children carved 3. Plus some of the neighbor hood kids came over and helped. They carved 6. Lastly I had 3 huge punkins (over 100#) that were not carved.

21 pumpkin it was.
