Halloween Festivities

We did some Halloween decorating:
       

We went to the Pumpkin Patch:

  

We did some Pumpkin Painting/Carving:

This year I thought I would try having the kids paint their pumpkins and they did a great job!!!

Austin did have a rainbow of colors on his pumpkin until he discovered the brown paint.

Mikayla's pumpkin

 I got to carve the BIG pumpkin (Craig picked out the huge pumpkin knowing he wouldn't be the one doing the carving).  Austin actually had a fun time scooping out the pumpkin guts this year--and he even used his hands!!

Here they are....my bat pumpkin, Kelsey's scarecrow pumpkin, and Andrea's Haunted House pumpkin (still a work in progress but Connor was doing a great job on the poking!)

Austin and his Joy School friends even had a Halloween Party/Parade.
