We had a little Pumpkin Carving party with Alisa and Jerry...the boys were thrilled and came up with all kinds of ideas for a pumpkin, the ending results were...Corbin - A bat and a silly face, Taylor - superman and batman, Jerry (doing it for the rest of us) - A bat and a moon
And of course we had to have cider and some doughnuts (fyi - doughnuts...no good :( ... I will be sticking to the other recipe (from Abe and Nicole) which is so delicious!!)
On halloween we went to a local grocery store's trunk or treat. There was one worker that was dressed, well scary. Levi was terrified. He would either stop and stare or else just keep walking past slowly staring at him. He didn't know what to think.
The boys thought it was great, though!
It was a blast to have MandiJon (as we call them) and the kids over. We have been getting together every Halloween for the last 3 years and having dinner and trick or treating. Have I ever metioned how much I love having my sister and her family live only 15 minutes away! Well, I do!! Jaina is the girl that I claim for my own since I don't have one (but don't worry Mandi, I won't steal her!) Justin asked Jaina what she was dressed up as, she said, "a costume"

One of our most favorite part of Halloween this year was watching Levi. I can't believe he is only 14 1/2 months old and he totally got the concept down. He walked right up to the door with all the kids, grabbed some candy, then put it in his bag, walked away without even looking at it, then he was ready to go to the next house. By the end of the night, he was dragging that bag behind him, but he would not let go. When we got home, he found our bowl of candy to pass out to other kids, he sat right down, and starting transfering from our bowl to his bag :) :)
