October pumpkins and costumes













As the kids get older pumpkin carving gets funner and more involved. First the boys had paint and were painting then carving and those little light bright pegs. At one point I looked up and saw Camden. I said "well aren't you lucky! When Elek was Camden's age all eyes were on him! But here is Camden hacking away at his pumpkin with a carving knife." He made it through without cutting himself and He was so Proud!


The day before Halloween main st does a little "store front" trick or treating. This is the cousins we started with...

This is the group of cousins we finished with:) Yes, there are two babies sleeping in that stroller!

Ward trunk or treat party. Pie eating contest. Yummm - eat with only my face-perfect!
Halloween highlights
-The kids all wanted to wear the same costumes as last year so we let them:)
-We tried to go to a pumpkin patch, but it was so, so very cold and wet-we left. I miss Lariland!! Maybe we'll find something better next year.
-The main st was my favorite this year. I love this old part of town:) And its small town-ness:)
-On Halloween we trick or treated with different cousins after the trunk or treat. Super fun!
-Free taco bell taco's. Yummy!

Looks like a fun Halloween! I WISH my kids would carve their own pumpkins. They just give me instructions and take off.
