Halloween and other Fall Fun

We didn't get a chance to make it out to our favorite pumpkin patch this year, so the kids wanted to choose their pumpkins from the YMCA "patch".


Caleb triumphantly "lifts" his pumpkin, with a little help :)

Ellie loving on her pumpkin, she's such a poser- that girl could totally be a model!
Carving- don't you love how Caleb is standing!

Cleaning out the glop, yuck

Then on to Halloween...
As busy as we've been getting the house ready to sell, it was nice to takes some time and hang out with the kids. Friday night we went to their school's Fall Fest, which is a really great fundraiser they do every year. They have carnival games, bounce houses, cake walk, etc.
Then Halloween night we went with our neighbor friend trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. After a couple hours Caleb and I were wiped out and went home, but Ellie was still going strong! The only reason she came home was that she needed to go to the bathroom!

A scary witch!
She made that scary face in almost every picture we have from Halloween!
