Lots of Halloween Festivities

We painted pumpkins.








We carved pumpkins.



David and I weren't going to dress up, but then we got invited to a Halloween party. So, we put together some costumes. David was Mr. Fredrickson from the movie "Up" and I was the boyscout, Russell, that tags along with him throughout the movie. I also carried around a dog with the "cone of shame" around his neck. I think it turned out pretty cute! Unfortunately, if I wasn't standing next to David, people had no idea who I was and they probably wondered why I dressed up like a nerdy looking boyscout with a dog for Halloween, lol. I'm excited to come up with something creative next year! ... and this time it will be something where people know who I am. :)

The party was lots of fun!

At the party.

Before we left for the party we had our babysitter take a picture.

We went and did the Heber Creeper halloween train ride. It was our first time doing it ... not terribly exciting, to be honest. It was fun spending time with family, though! I know we took pictures of it on David's phone, but for some reason they disappeared. :(

We had our ward halloween party (I think a couple days before halloween). Forgot to take pictures, though. Dang it!
Halloween night we all dressed up one last time and went to trick or treat the neighborhood. In our last neighborhood in Eagle Mountain, we didn't get hardly any trick or treaters. I was SO EXCITED this year thinking we would get more trick or treaters in our new neighborhood. Well ... I thought wrong. We got 2 trick or treaters. Yes, ... TWO!!! Sad :( Definitely won't be buying the costco size bags of candy next year. After we got home with our loot, I baked some different flavored pumpkin seeds ... they turned OK.

October was a fun month!!

Love Halloween! You all look so cute!! And, I can't believe you only had TWO trick-or-treaters! I bought 300 pieces of candy & only had a few left by the end of the night. I was so scared I was going to run out!
