Happy Halloween! ! !

Our lil' pumpkin:) Well, maybe not so little...

We kicked off our festivities with picking out pumpkins. Kassidy had to look at just about every single one, and then look at them some more, before finally settling on one. Kaleb picked one up right away and said that was the one. Funny how different they are!



Karson's first experience with a pumpkin

Grandma Montemagno got the kids these cool Mr. Potato Head pumpkin parts last year. We finally got to use them. The kids just loved making their own pumpkin faces:)

The finished products...Princess
Monster
I love this pic because it shows once again how different Kassidy and Kaleb are. Kassidy just dove right in and dug her arms, hands, and even fingernails into the pumpkin to get all the goo and seed out. She had a blast! Kaleb didn't like it too much, just touched a few times with the tips of his fingers. (then wanted wiped off of course!)

This is the pumpkin the kids picked out for Karson. Kassidy wanted to carve it all by herself but it was just too thick.
Kaleb being silly
Mommy's turn!
So proud of their pumpkins:) The 3 little ones they painted at Alex and Evan's school carnival.
All set for trick-or-treating...Tigger, Pooh, and a Mermaid
The only pic I could get Karson to smile for some reason...brothers and best buds!
Kassidy wanted us to dress up SO bad!!! I just happened to have a Minnie Mouse and a Pirate costume laying around in the attic so we joined in the fun:) (Kassidy took this pic by the way...not too bad, huh?)
We went to our neighbors house first
After this (2nd house) they were all set to go by themselves
Karson with his first piece of candy...a sucker from a sweet old lady down the street. No, I didn't let him eat it. He just instinctively puts everything into his mouth!
Even with it raining on and off and getting wet, the kids were practically running up to the houses to get more candy. Kaleb really suprised us by saying trick-or-treat real loud! (Last year he only did 2 or 3 houses then cried and wouldn't do any more) They finally had enough after an hour and a half.
Digging into the goods:) She was eating so fast so she could eat m0re pieces...hilarious!
Kaleb with his 5th sucker...just a taste then he was all done! Not a candy lover. Darn, more for daddy and I:)
It was a great fun-filled night. Karson was such a good boy in the stroller, never once made a peep! Kaleb keeps asking me when it's Halloween night again and saying it's dark outside mom time to go trick-or-treating again! He resorted to trick-or-treating inside, stopping at certain walls, knocking, saying trick-or-treat, thank you...too funny:)
Hope you all had a great Halloween, too!
