Halloween Traditions

For past few years, we've gone over to my parents house to carve pumpkins. This year was especially fun because the boys were in to it. We played outside, ate dinner and carved pumpkins.

Jacob and his buddy "Pig Pen"

Jacob is excited thinking about what to carve

Aidan decides to take a bite . . .not such a great choice

Whoa! It's gotta a little, something!

"Please, no more photos, no more photos. Just leave me and my seed alone."

Aidan still hasn't learned and continues to try different parts of the pumpkin.

Maybe if I take a bite out of the big part it will be better!

Aidan finds something truly edible, Cheerios! Thanks Aunt Riss!
