Halloween

Carving Pumpkins

Redd loved getting his hands in and pulling out the guts!

He even helped move the knife to cut out the pieces Here he is with his happy pumpkin! Judd and I had never carved pumpkins together & it turned out to be really fun. Redd picked which pumpkins each of us got and through the rest of the month whenever we drove into the driveway, he would point at our pumpkins and tell us who they were. Dad is the scary one, Mom is the happy one, and Redd is the little one! Trick or Treating Since Redd is so little, we just do our Trick-or-Treating at the Grandma's houses instead of around the neighborhood. This year at my mom's the kids walked around to all the aunts and got their treats. I didn't realize that Redd would expect a treat from me. He kept coming up and saying "Trick-or-Treat, Mama" with this look on his face...oops! I had to steal some treats from my mom to put in his bag. Next time I'll be prepared. Dallin, Cooper, Chole, Jax, Jadon, Tayah, Berkley, Redd, Cord, Ava, Brad, Griffin Redd wasn't just any giraffe.. he was Melman from Madagascar (that's what we had to tell him to get excited about his costume) "Luigi"- Brad, "Rocker" - Jadon and "Disco Dude"- Cord "Scarecrow"- Dallin, "Melman"- Redd, "Mario"- Griffin "Ninja"- Cooper, "Yoda"- Jax "Dorothy" - Tayah, "Disco Chick"- Chole "Alice"- Berkley, "Witch"- Ava

(this picture makes me laugh because Redd

was super nervous to get by Kayden dressed

like this. You can kind of see the terror in his face.)

The BEST costume of all!!!

Judd dressed up as my dad!!

When everyone was distracted taking picutres

of the kids, Judd went out and put on his costume

& came in yelling at the kids to get on the dang bus! It was awesome!
