Halloween 2011

On Sunday, October 30st our church had their annual picnic at Rose Park. The kids loved the bounce houses and big slides. It was a beautiful day for this fun- filled afternoon spending time with our friends from church.









That night we did our 1st ever pumpkin carving with the kids. In the past I set our pumpkins out in October and left them through Thanksgiving. We figured Morgan would enjoy craving one so we started the tradition this year!

Pops was the carver and Morgan was his big helper!



Graham wasn't too sure about the big mess. He kept his distance from it!

Check out her drawing...


Then she worked on writing her name while Pops carved the pumpkin...


Graham was busy playing while everyone else worked on the pumpkin...


She was so excited about Pop's carving...

On Halloween morning Morgan woke up ready to Trick or Treat. She didn't understand why we had to wait until the end of the day. Thank goodness we had another activity planned. We went to Country Critters with MECPTA and spent the morning there. It is super croweded with field trips, etc. I guess we should have expected it since it was Halloween. The kids still had a good time!

After a good nap it was time to get ready for Trick or Treating. Our sweet neighbors in our old neighborhood invited us over for a cookout and to Trick or Treat. It was good to see all of our neighbors and their kids. We miss them like crazy and we've only been gone from the neighborhood 2 months.
