Halloween Festivities

This year Halloween has been so much fun for us. The boys are really getting into it and loving it! They have gotten two Halloween packages from Oma and Grandma which brought lots of fun things and most importantly TREATS!!! We have carved pumpkins, made treats, and talked about spooky things. Kids have made holidays so much more fun!!

We convinced Kyler to stick his hand in the pumpkin, but he didn't like it one bit!  There is a video clip at the end of the post with his reaction.

Kyler has been making the best faces lately!  Apparently, you cannot carve pumpkins with clothes on; I'm learning there are a lot of things you cannot do with clothes!!

The only part of the pumpkin the boys would touch.  Kenney and I were talking about how long it took to carve pumpkins as kids, and it seemed like it took forever.  I was amazed at how quickly we got it done this year.  It took like 15mins to carve two of them!

Kyler drawing the face on one of the pumpkins.  He then proceeded to draw all over it!

The finished products!  Kyler call his pumpkin, the one in the back, 'spoogily' aka spooky.

Taking them outside

Radley's first Halloween, and our first attempt at pumpkin carving!

Kyler decorating the Halloween cupcakes we made.  He helped me make them while Damon was taking a nap.  When they came out of the over, I told Kyler they had to cool down before we could frost them.  He refused to leave the kitchen saying that he would 'wait.'  And wait he did not!  I walked into the other room, and less than 10 mins later he had eaten the top off of 4 cupcakes!!  The child does not have any patience!!

The cupcake is much more impressive than the 'smile'

Damon had to lick the knife every time before getting more frosting!

This little cutie stole Damon's dog while they were busy decorating frosting.

I love that cute little face!

I tried to get a picture of the boys dressed in cute vests for church and this is the best we could do.  2 out of 3 isn't bad, right?!?!
