Happy Halloween

The kids (aka dad and mom) cleaned out and carved pumpkins for family night last week. Carson hates cleaning out pumpkins! Every year I wait and see if it has changed but it hasn't. I think next year we will have them paint them instead. Less work for us.
They both wanted bats!



This is Jackson's contribution to the party

Being cute...like always!
Carson was Wall-e, McKenna was Rapunzel, and Jackson was a skeleton.



I just love it. He is so cute!
We went to the ward trunk or treat and then came home and had dinner. This is what we had.....
We have never been in Utah with the Gurr family for Halloween and let me tell you it was super tasty! LaNona (my mother in law) goes all out for a Halloween dinner. So with out further ado here we go.

It really was a lot of fun. She worked for weeks on this. I didn't get pictures of all of the food but some other names were pussy pimples, skeleton remains, eye of newt, and bat guts.

Love it! Love it all! How fun that your Mom in law does that! She cool, she cool! :) The kids look great! Maybe next year you'll have to do pumpkins with us so Carson and Ryker can go at the guts together!
