Halloween!! (Almost)

This week has been full of "Halloween-y" activities! On Tuesday we found some pumpkins at the local Food Lion (couldn't quite find a local pumpkin patch...better luck next year!), and Wednesday we carved them up. Thursday we made sugar cookies using the Halloween cookie cutters Grandma Rae Rae sent us (so cute!). Today was the "Halloween Spooktacular" in downtown Buena Vista and Lexington, so we got the kids all dressed up and took them to the local businesses for some spoils. Logan was helping to direct traffic in Lexington, and the boys were very excited to see him while we were out and about! Carolena went with us to Lexington, and Nanna and Papa joined us in Buena Vista.

A messy job, but someone has to do it!

Tommy didn't like the inside of the pumpkin very much....



Neither did Jack....



The finished masterpieces!!

Buena Vista is having trick or treating tomorrow (Saturday), but I haven't decided if I'm going to take the boys out or not. After all, they aren't really going to eat most of what they collected today...(since Logan and I already did)....guess we'll see!
