Halloween Activities

We were very busy this Halloween.  We carved pumpkins a couple weeks before Halloween for family home evening.  The kiddos had a great time.  They also loved eating the seeds after we cleaned and dried them out.  Here are some pictures.

 The week of Halloween, all this kids had pumpkin parties at school.  Morgan and Joshua weren't able to wear their costumes, but Gracie, Jaxen and Rachel got to dress up.   Then on the 29th, we went Trunk or Treating at a local church. Since they advertised at all the local schools they had a great turnout and we were a little worried we wouldn't get any candy, but surprise surprise they had enough and the wait wasn't too long.  Then on Saturday, we went to Deanna's for their Halloween party and carnival.  They had games, face painting, tattoos and books to hand out.  The kids had a great time.  Then finally that night we went to Robert and Mary's for trick or treating.  They kids were so excited and ran to every house.  They wore themselves out which was great for Mommy and Daddy.  Here are some pics:

Cute costumes! We never did carve pumpkins. I guess time just got away from us.
