Halloween traditions!

Here's just a preview of my adorable little trick-or-treaters!! This was before our ward trunk-or-treat last weekend.

**********************************************************

Last Monday we had a little family day and spent the afternoon at Bishop's Pumpkin Farm with the kids. This has become a family tradition of ours each year! Kali and Zach had so much fun riding the train ride, petting and feeding the animals, and going on the hayride to the huge pumpkin fields where they got to pick out their very own pumpkins!!






For some reason they were into pumpkins with green on them. Madelyn even got her very own pumpkin that Zach and Kali picked out for her. :)






We then carved our pumpkins for family night with the Hinson's. The kids had a great time! I actually carved Zach's very cool green pumpkin!



Mark carved the two big ones, the pirate skull and the witch (if you can't tell what that one is on the left). I was so amazed at the time Mark took on these two pumpkins this year. Good job honey! This is a rare occasion in our house when it comes to pumpkin carving. I am usually the one who does the carving but I think Mark was out to prove me wrong this year!! Aren't they awesome?!! Neal carved the big jolly/joker/freaky smily face on the right. I think it's kinda cool looking... I love the big smile with the scary eyes!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN & Happy Trick-or-Treating!!
