Carving pumpkins for FHE on Monday...James named our pumpkin Jose.
Halloween Sugar Cookies on Thursday night...
Music Makers on Friday where we all dressed up and sang lots of Halloween songs. (start your own where you live...it's so fun!!)
Trick-or-Treat
Matthias was SO cute saying trick or treat. Whenever we went to a house he would stick his hand in their candy bowl and take handfuls at a time...he really got into the free candy thing. I asked him to say trick or treat for me and he said "trick or treat for me"
Before we left Matthias climbed up to our candy bowl and started filling his pumpkin while saying 'trick or treat'...
We only had to take away about half of the candy because it was too sticky, hard, chewy, etc for four capped teeth. James was really good about it and kept saying, "I have enough candy" or "I can't eat that" He did a great job!
Now that it's over may I just say that I do not like Halloween!! I personally am not the dressing up type and my kids dress up EVERY day, so they don't need a special holiday for it. First thing every morning it's down to the toy room to decide who to be that day. And until those baby teeth fall out in about 5-6 years Halloween candy is just going to make me have headaches. Hopefully James continues to be as agreeable as he was this year.

How fun! I wish I was there to eat your applesauce and sugar cookies.
The boys are so cute! I love how Matthias really embraced the holiday! I never really like Halloween until this year -- eating Ian's candy is fun! He is happy with Smarties, so I get all the Kit-Kats and Reeses!
Looks like your boys had a great time, and they look adorable, too!!
Thank you for the "see me run" video--I remember having so much fun running around our kitchen table growing up. Do you know where I can buy a tape/CD?
