costumes and carvings

We had an unexpected weekend at home and boy did we take full advantage of it! We carved our family pumpkin complete with roasting the seeds and playing in the mush. That's personally always been my favorite part since my own childhood. Grey was so proud of his daddy's carving and couldn't quit smiling.

The boys had a few opportunities to obtain lots of treats this weekend. My personal favorite was at church Sunday night. The ol' classic "Trunk or Treat." Our small group put together a money winning trunk! And when I say our small group, I really mean all the other ladies. I was not much help. We did Candy Land and each couple was a color of the candy path. Matthew and I were orange and had gumdrops taped to our shirts. Tuck ripped Matthew's off early in the evening and yes, he meant to have his shirt on inside out. It was a blast!

This is our winning trunk (most detailed. woo hoo!) with everyone minus the Johns. The sun was mega bright so it was extremely difficult to get a picture plus all the details.

The evening started out a little rough for Tuck. Drew was a happy camper with his sister's princess bucket. Tuck just needed a little something to wet his whistle. 

That's the ticket!

We even had a Ms. Mint to go with our trunk! It was awesome.

Tuck's choice candy for Halloween, suckers and lots of them!

I personally am glad that holiday is over. It's definitely probably my least favorite but is followed by my most favorite time of the year. A season of gratefulness and of course Christmas!
