Halloween!

We had extra pumpkins left over from Brad's pumpkin patch, so we started our festivities with a long carving party. Eden won the prize for the most beautiful pumpkin... hers had a face carved and then she wanted to paint it too. Erin and her giraffe pumpkins definitely won the prize for most creative. She did this all free hand I must add, no patterns for this artist!

For work, Brad needed to still wear a suit and look somewhat professional, so he dressed up as Michael Scott from the TV show "The Office".

And for the official Halloween celebration, we let Eden pick out everyone's costumes. She decided on Cinderella for herself, baby Jack Jack (from the Incredibles) for Bentley, I was a fishtank, and Brad was a silly man. :)

The kids looked so adorable in their costumes!

We went trick or treating with Lydia and Grace. They were a pretty cute group of princesses.

This was Eden's first year trick-or-treating and she wasn't really sure what to think about it. I guess because she doesn't eat candy, it doesn't make it as exciting to her as it is to typical kids. After doing about 10 houses she was ready to head home. She absolutely LOVED handing out the candy to the kids that came to our door though, and they loved it too because she was giving out hand fulls! Overall, it was such a fun holiday and we look forward to having two little trick-or-treaters next year!
