Happy Halloween 2010


Happy Halloween everybody! Here are the pumpkins that decorated our front yard tonight. Andy and the boys carved the pumpkins on Thursday while I was at work. Actually, the boys told Andy what they wanted their pumpkins to look like. They didn't even want to help clean out the pumpkins-I guess they don't like how the insides feel.



Andy took the boys treat-or-treating this year and I stayed home to hand out candy. They started at the trunk-or-treat at the church at the front of our subdivision and worked their way back to our house. Ewan got dropped off first, and helped to hand out candy to other kids. Trick or treating here was from 6-9. Our boys were done by around 730. Then they handed out candy to other kids. We gave out all the candy we had and got the boys to bed a little after 8. You may have noticed some costume changes for this evening. Cale did not like having his whole face green-or maybe he didn't like having to wash all the green makeup off his face-so he decided to be Obi-Wan for this evening. Ewan thought being Yoda would be cool and really wanted to wear the brown robe Cale has on. Well, he was devastated to find out that it would not fit him-it was sized for Cale-and that he would have to wear a black robe. Many, many tears later, we got him calmed down and out the door with the rest of the boys. For a moment, I thought Andy would just be taking Marcus and Liam-they were the only ones not crying. Luckily, everyone calmed down and enjoyed themselves. Now we have a bunch of new candy to eat-I'm sure the boys won't notice if I have some :-).
