HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Did I ever mention that I love holidays? Especially Halloween! It's nice to see all the little kiddos dressed cute, some scary, and some mommies and daddies walking the neighborhoods with them! Halloween is awesome! It's so much fun!

I remember when I was still dressing up at the age of 13 or so, I was a clown! My mom and dad always went out of their way to buy my brother and I a high priced costume! Of course, now looking back on it I regret ever having them spend so much money on something that I would only wear for a little while, but it was fun for the time being! I remember being a kid and it puts me in a happy mood!

Yesterday I had Morgan and her sister over to carve pumpkins with Aidan and I. We had so much fun! I heated up some frozen soup and made grilled cheese! It was perfect for the weather. I also picked up some pumpkin cupcakes! Needless to say, there isn't many cupcakes left! Not because of Morgan or her sister or I, Aidan is to blame! 14 year old boys can eat like they haven't had a meal in over a month! I can never keep food in the house for too long. I don't look forward to having 14 year old boys of my own later in my life! I guess it's just that age..

Morgan carved a kitty cat pumpkin!
Payton carved a ummmm... pumpkin!
and I carved a silly pumpkin!
It's hard to label all of the pumpkins! We did not use a stencil and poke holes in our pumpkins. In my opinion, that's cheating!!!!! Lol. Of course, those kind always look nicer, but that takes all of the fun out of it! Besides, those are always general pumpkin carvings that everyone has because you can just buy the kits at wal mart and what not. We found our pumpkin carving ideas on google! Maybe one year I will grow pumpkins and we won't have to buy any! Wouldn't that be nice?!

I searched all over town for pumpkins yesterday. Thankfully my mom had bought one about three weeks ago and hers was pretty and perfectly round. I went to wal-mart yesterday and they were out, to Liberty Baptist Church, and they didn't sell on Sunday, and then to the farmer's market where they were dollars a piece only to watch Aidan completely ruin his and then throw it and smash it! It was overall a good night though and ended with lit pumpkins on the porch and me watching the Twilight movies on TV!.. and then passing out early!
