Halloween Festivities

We carved our pumpkins a couple nights before beggars night.  I always think carving pumpkins is so much fun but then when it comes down to it, it's always me cleaning out several pumpkins and then carving the pictures the kids picked out and it takes forever.  Plus I'm trying to contain the mess and keep my kids from spreading pumpkin guts all over the house all while "helping" them carve and not cut off their fingers.  In the end it's not much fun and I think to myself, next year we will just paint pumpkins.  Somehow I forget all this when Halloween rolls around the next year.

We had our ward trunk or treat about a week before Halloween.  It was kind of a bust, nobody was really in charge and  people were late and then still needed to set up their trunks.  At least the kids had some fun.

Beggar's night!!!!

We had great weather for Halloween, it wasn't freezing but just a little chilly.  The kids ran from house to house and ended up with a ton of candy.  Asher pooped out at the end so I took him home but Paul stayed out with the other two for a little bit longer.  

On Halloween night we went to a party at the Findlay's home.  We had yummy soup, bread, and spooky desserts. Then we played Halloween games with the kids.
