Halloween!

 Carving pumpkins always proves to be an adventure.  This year, we carved in two shifts.  It was so nice outside that we gutted them on the patio in the early evening.  Then after dinner, we worked on giving our Jack-O-Lanterns some faces.  We had a fun/messy time.

 Jaren and Dad working on Jaren's scray/fiery guy.

 Libbie's always excited for me to catch her on camera.

 Tyce was LOVING his pumpkin.  We even gave the pumpkin some cute, big front teeth to match Tycie boy.

 Claire's puppy pumpkin.

 Mallory's kitty.

 Scary, fiery guy.

 Mia opted for a bat this year. Nice!

 We had a great Halloween this year.  Grandma and Courtney came to celebrate with us and go trick-or-treating together.  Jaren was a race car driver.

 Claire was Anna from "Frozen".

 Libbie as a stick person

 Mia the mime.

 The whole group all ready to embark on a candy-filled adventure.

 Mallory is Miss America.

 Olivia the ladybug.

Tyce as Nemo.  He went to three houses in the cul-de-sac.  He was content to sit on the steps and eat M&Ms.  I couldn't help but be happy/sad with how cute he looks and how fast he's growing up.  I loved watching his little guppy-bum waddle in this costume.  Most the kids were out with Dad for about 3 hours.  They got way too much candy.
