Halloween Festivities!

I just spent forever working on this post, then accidentally deleted the whole thing and now I have to start over.  *exasperated sigh*

We started our Halloween festivities with Kyle and Luke carving a Jack-O-Lantern.  Luke had plenty of fun choosing the design and helped take the seeds off the lid...and then promptly lost interest in the project and went to play until it was time to light the candle.  He also enjoyed the yummy pumpkin seeds I roasted.






We carved our pumpkin (by "we" I mean Kyle") Monday evening.  Tuesday evening we went to Storybook Forrest at Arcadia lake.  Luke enjoyed it and Leta loved seeing Luke in costume.  It was really cute how she kept looking at him in his monkey costume and giggling.  She thought it was the most funny thing.




We didn't get that great of pictures of Leta in her costume ever...bummer!


Wednesday we went to eat chili and go to Knock Knock Night at Quail Springs coC.  Luke was so excited to go...he's been asking about it since last year.  We went with Brandon and Shanna and saw many people we hadn't seen in a long time and really enjoyed ourselves.  Plus, Luke got lots of Tootsi Rolls...which I am ALL about.  I remembered our camera, but didn't remember to use it. *sad face*


Saturday day was horrible!  Luke was totally naughty and hyper and spastic all day long.  He was definitely more than a little excited to go Trick-or-Treating.  I made him a Carmel apple, which he refused to even try, so Kyle and I got to eat it and we liked it!  We met Brandon and Shanna at Panera Bread to eat before setting out in a nearby neighborhood (both of us live in very small neighborhoods, which are not good for Trick-or-Treating in.
Luke and Leta loved it.  There was one house where the entire family was sitting outside playing their various instruments together.  Leta loved the live music.  She clapped her hands and bounced and showed very good rhythm by clapping on the beat, which means she's already passed Kyle with her musical skills =).  There were several houses that had really gone all out decorating their yards and were in costume to hand out candy.  At one house in particular, Luke said, "Mommy can you believe all these decorations?!?"
