Halloween Happenings

We threw a Halloween Bash for a few of our close friends.  We took these pictures before everyone arrived and then we had so much crazy fun, we didn't get any other pictures!  We played murder and curses with the adults while the kids ran wild and had SO much fun.

The kids at the school PTO carnival.  Nathan saw this bouncy house (Thomas the Train) and went crazy!  It was all he could do to wait his turn in line.  He kept laughing this super excited laugh while waiting- best sound ever!  It was super cute to watch Nate and Samantha trying to play mini golf.  Brian actually did pretty good.  

Also, our friend took these two AMAZING pictures of Brian and Nathan in their costumes.  I wasn't going to reveal costumes until Halloween night but these pictures are just too good!!!  She is just starting out her photography business, http://lovelylilacphotography.blogspot.com/ or http://www.facebook.com/LovelyLilacPhotography?fref=ts

And... (we really, really like Halloween at our house) the pumpkin carving!  Dusty and Nathan teamed up.  Samantha and Mom teamed up and Brian did his 100% by himself!!!  Nathan was super hesitant at first and made some great faces when Dusty tried to get him to help scoop out the goopy pumpkin seeds.  It was great fun! Samantha dug right in and insisted on a "grumpy" face.  Brian just had to add eyebrows.  Love these kids!  And let's not fail to mention my almost 9-month pregnant belly joining in the fun for pictures.

I just have to point out that Dusty carved the word "BOO" on the top of his pumpkin as an "exhaust valve"  You can see the reflection in the glass- so fun!
