Halloween 2009






We had such a fun Halloween this year! On Thursday evening, we carved pumpkins. The girls were really into it and even helped clean out some of the "gunk" from inside the pumpkin. Kianna loved saying the word "gunk" and was repeating it over and over. It was really cute. Kianna of course wanted a mean face on her pumpkin and Kaylee wanted a heart and some stars. The difference in their personalities continues to amuse me! Daddy ended up making Kianna a mean dragon face, while I worked on Kaylee's pumpkin. While Trevor and I were busy carving, the girls had fun putting sticker faces on their little pumpkins. Trace was oblivious to all the pumpkin fun, as he took a much needed nap.

On Saturday evening, with costumes donned the kids had fun trick-or-treating around our neighborhood with their cousins, Bryker and Aliyah. The girls ran from house to house in excitement trying to get as much candy as possible. Trace was content getting pulled around the neighborhood in the wagon. The kids had quite the fan club come to see them all dressed up. Their fan club included Grandpa John and Aunt Bree, Uncle Patrick, Aunt Sam and Uncle Mike, Grandma Becki and Grandpa Bob, Grandma Sue and Grandpa Wayne, and Great Grandma Carie (Grandma GG). Grandma GG had fun holding down our fort and handing out candy to the neighborhood kids while we took the kids trick-or-treating. The evening ended with pumpkin cake, hot apple cider, and a sugar high for the girls. What a great night with family!
