Happy Halloween

Lincoln's pumpkin.  He designed it himself, but had to have a lot of help carving.  He wasn't even afraid to touch all the pumpkin guts. 

 

Bruce always has the creative touch.  Do you like it?

Allen's costume did not come in the mail in time for the branch Trunk or Treat, so he was a great sport as we threw together his nerd costume.  He makes a great nerd, doesn't he?  The young men and women put together the games: bobbing for apples, fishing, and cake walk.  We came away with some great looking cakes, 3 goldfish, and one best female adult costume award.  I was proud of myself.

Good thing his costume came in time for the big day!  He got a lot of laughter at school, and as a mother, I am very grateful for a boy who went with the humor of Halloween, rather than the gore. 

Check out all of their loot!  We walked around our circle, then Bruce took them on the moped to the upper subdivision.  One house they visited hadn't had any trick or treaters all evening, so the boys got half of her bowl.  We also ended up with a full bowl of candy that we didn't hand out.  Hmmm.  What do you do with it all?
