Here's Asia carving her pumpkin. She does this evil look whenever I want to take her picture. I'm not really sure why. It's the perfect look for Halloween I guess:
Here's Jacob looking for his pumpkin. I think a little girl took it when he wasn't looking! Oh well, we found him another one:
Scooping the guts out. Ethan doesn't like this step that much. He says he gets the gross-out shivers when he touches the guts! I asked him how he was supposed to be a doctor and do surgeries if he gets the gross-out shivers all of the time. He simply said, "I'm not going to be doing any surgeries." Nuff said!

Here's Mia the drool monkey. She's getting her 2 front top teeth so her shirts are always soaked with drool lately. Her favorite activity of the night was taking her socks off and chewing on them. I kept putting them on and she would take them off right away and start chewing. I guess it felt good on her gums!
Asia and Jacob lost interest in carving their pumpkins because there were so many other fun things to do. Here's Asia playing mummy bowling:
Here's the prize she picked when she got a strike: a thing full of candy corn! Yummy!
Here's Jacob trying to find another cookie and maybe a handful of chips! I think the only thing he ate that night was chips and cookies. Another Yummy!
Ethan was determined to carve his pumpkin and not stop until it was finished! Here's his masterpiece. He wanted his to have 4 eyes and be super scary:
After he finally finished, he decided it was time to go play. Here he is trying his hand at mummy bowling:
He also got a strike and chose one teeny Hershey kiss for his prize:Jacob found a ladder that he just had to climb. It's so fun to see things from a grown-ups' perspective:
And here are the finished products, finally finished. Thanks to Mike who carved the other two pumpkins. They turned out fantastic! Can't wait for next year's bash!
Halloween Happenings Part Two
The night before Halloween, we had a neighborhood Trunk or Treat. All three wards in our church building get involved and throw a fun party. First, we bring a soup to share and eat yummy soup and rolls. Then it's off to decorate the trunks and getcha candy on!
Here's Jacob getting his Superman hair ready:
The cutest Little Red Riding Hood:The cutest little Superman enjoying some soup and rolls:
Bakugan Dan finishing up his soup and roll. (Don't ask me who Bakugan Dan is!)
Asia, the Renaissance Princess and her daddy:
I failed to get a picture of my trunk this year, but it won for best decorated trunk again! We had so much fun and can't wait for next year! I'll post about the "real" Halloween soon, I hope!
