Halloween

  We started Halloween a few days before the actual event, by carving pumpkins.  We were living at my parents waiting on our house to be done, so my dad got to join in on the fun.  As usual, the kids did more observing than carving, but it was still fun.  Ashlyn was determined to carve her pumpkin by herself this year.  She did a pretty good job.

   We do the same exact thing every Halloween.  We always start the night with a pumpkin pizza at my sister's house, followed by trick or treating.  We had an absolute gorgeous Halloween this year. The news said it was the nicest Halloween since the 1930s!!!  It was so nice to get to trick or treat without needing to be bundled up.  The kids are not all at an age where the understand trick or treating so they love it!  It was a school night, so we couldn't stay out too late,but the kids still got a ton of candy.  Fun was had by all.
