Happy Halloween

Here are Ethan and Seth wearing the Halloween costumes Mimi got them. When they first put them on a few weeks ago, they were not thrilled about wearing them. Then my mom gave me a great idea. She suggested having them put on their costumes and practice saying "trick or treat" and getting candy in their bags. I couldn't get them to take their costumes off after that. Hopefully the real thing will go as smoothly tonight!




Here are the boys stuffing their faces with candy corn. I discovered putting wrapped candy in their bags was not a good idea because Seth put the entire thing in his mouth, foil and all! Candy corn works much better. I can eat candy corn all day and I have obviously passed on my candy corn addiction to the boys.


Ethan in his scarecrow costume. Tim was making him laugh!



Seth, my little pumpkin!



Last night, Tim and the boys carved pumpkins. Well, Tim carved them and the boys had fun making a big mess.



Ethan had fun playing with the seeds and other goop inside the pumpkins, but Seth didn't like getting quite so dirty. He wanted to use the knives and carve the pumpkins like dada.





Ethan digging in!





The boys showing off their finished products.






Happy Halloween everyone! Be safe trick or treating and eat lots of candy!

I love the costumes the boys look so cute. Hope they had lots of fun trick or treating. You are very brave to let them carve pumpkins inside, we go out on the driveway so the I don't have to clean up such a huge mess.
