we had a great time this halloween! friday was our ward's trunk-or-treat, and they went all out! it began with homemade chili, hot dogs, chips, and hot chocolate. next was bounce houses for the kids. then came the candy gathering. :) it was a really well-done event.
saturday afternoon we carved our pumpkins. we hadn't had a chance to get to them before that, but no one seemed to mind.
this is dave's "why do i have to pull the goo out of a pumpkin? this is one of the most ridiculous holidays i've ever heard of, but i love you, so i'll do it anyway. but i don't have to like it." face. isn't it cute?!
he, he, he
he's such a good sport! love you, dave!
here are the three finished products. naomi chose a cat in a window for her and i to do together. dave did the autobot symbol for chris, and chris drew his own design on his little pumpkin from preschool. he had help with the carving part. not too shabby!
we gathered at jonathan and katie's for dinner and neighborhood trick-or-treating.
naomi the rock star with lily the princess. naomi had a choice of any of the halloween costumes in the store - even the princess ones - but chose the hot pink and black guitar. so, she got to be a rock star, and loved every minute of it!
chris as optimus prime
all ready for trick-or-treating
they all had a great time, and of course, got way too much candy!
i love that naomi was a rockstar!
