Happy Halloween!!!


We'll start off with a little Halloween flashback....Rick 1983 (3 years old) Carson 2008 (2 1/2 years old)


We had such a fun day yesterday for Halloween!! It is so fun now that our kids are getting old enough to enjoy these holidays!!! The only good/bad thing was that Rick had to stand in line for over two hours to vote!!! I was very proud of him though:)


We had fun carving our pumpkin that we picked out last week at the pumpkin patch/parking lot.....


Carson was more interested in coloring on it however.... so we gave him his mini pumpkin


Pretty nice huh?

Brynnli couldn't do much while we carved other than watch and try to eat the pumpkin leftovers:)
And then of course it was time to trick or treat!! Carson decided at the last minute that he wanted to be a pirate instead of superman, so I made an impromptu sword out of cardboard and recycled most of my costume from last week, and here he went!!


Brynnli was VERY tired and was probably wondering what on earth we were doing...again.


What a little angel!!!!

The group shot, at least they were both looking... sort of



Arghhhh!! I drew a tattoo on Carson's arm....



And then the rain came down...... which was actually really fun! I am told by Rick's parents that this is a regular occurance on Halloween in Florida, maybe next year I will include an umbrella with the costumes somehow....



We had so much fun seeing our neighbors... Carson was way more fun than last year, Carson kept saying "ok, next house!!"
He was so excited to be trick or treating and walked the whole time, it was very fun!
Brynnli lasted until almost the very end, but it was really late and she finally gave in....

Carson was checking out his "treasure" of candy, there was soo much!! I was very carefully "inspecting" all of it when we got home, and some of it was questionable, so naturally I had to eat it and make sure it was okay:)
A special thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Tolbert who came along in the rain, handed out candy at our house, and took pictures for us, we couldn't have done it without you!
Hope everyone else had as much fun as we did!!
