Halloween 2010

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays for our family. Not because of the spooky stuff but because of some of the great traditions and fun of the holiday. Saturday was so warm that we were able to carve pumpkins in the backyard.
Our church has a trunk or treat every year for the little kids. The four older kids were each part of the festivities for the younger kids this year. I also think that this is the one time of year that Haley actually enjoys being the youngest in the family. We baked cupcakes, brownies and made chili. So it was a full day and by 8 pm we were sure it was closer to midnight. Here the kids are all dressed up for the night. Krystal was sick and ended up spending most of the time sleeping in the car. But everyone else had a really good time.
All five pumpkins survived and made it to the porch this year. It was a perfect night for the trick or treaters and the pumpkins all looked so cool with the candles burning inside of them. The new plug in pumpkins are fun but there is nothing like the real thing! What a great way to end October and welcome a new month.

  1. Hasn't the weather been incredible! Hailey is the only one I saw at the party, but she looked great as Sulley. I know David scared the wits out of her in the spook alley! Fun times. :)

Halloween 2009

Found an old picture of the kids in 2003. Thought it would be a fun way to see how much they've grown. Pretty soon I'll be lucky if they'll take a picture for me! 3 out of 5 pumpkins made it to the porch! David carved way too much and it sort of fell apart. (why it is on his head) Haley tripped on the front porch and the pumpkin flew to its end. While comforting Haley something happened to Reid's pumpkin and it ended up in 2 peices. We're just happy we got to carve pumpkins this year!
