The past month or two have been a little busy for me. Tuesday afternoon I realised that we had not carved pumpkins. So I sent Kendall to the store to pick out pumpkins for us. Poor Noah was so upset that he didn't get to go and pick out his own pumpkin. (He had a phone conference with his teacher and couldn't go with Kendall.) Kendall came home with this pumpkin that had all these growths on it. It looked like it had warts growing on it. Noah was happy about that.
Daniel was so excited to carve pumpkins until we told him he had to clean out the guts! Kendall forced his hand in the pumpkin and he was MAD!
Look at that stink eye he's giving Kendall! I love it!
He is totally grossed out by this!
Last year Emma would have nothing to do with cleaning out the pumpkins, but this year she did her own and took pity on Daniel and helped him out.
Noah's never had a problem with cleaning out his pumpkins!
Emma with the face she drew on her pumpkin.
Some of the pumpkins were really tough this year. Kendall broke out the power tools to speed things up. I love Emma in the back ground holding her ears!
Of course we can't carve pumpkins without having carameled apples. Sorry I didn't get any pictures of the finished product...
Friday night Kendall and Noah went to the Museum of Flight's Spooktacular sleepover. They opened up the museum and they got to spend the night inside museum. They had a lot of fun! Noah was a ghost (minus the makeup).

Noah had a wonderful time. He came home with a new t-shirt with a space shuttle on it.
On Saturday night we went to a Halloween party. A guy from our church has a big barn and some property. He decorates the barn and has a carnival and hay ride. This year he invited a lot more people and I heard that they were expecting 700-800 people! After being there I believe that was pretty accurate! All my kids wanted to be ghost this year, how lucky am I! The picture above is Emma and Noah doing the cake walk.
The kids on the hay ride. The driver was not very experience with the tractor and we got stuck, Kendall ended up getting out and pushing. It was very muddy! When the tractor get stuck in the ditch the trailer we were on tilted on it's side a little and Emma kinda freaked out. I have to admit I was a little worried at first that the whole thing was going to tip on its side! This picture was taken before the ride started moving. It was an adventure!
What a sad little ghost! I think she was cold, tired and she didn't' have any ketchup for her corn dog!
They had cotton candy. Noah saw some kid walking around with cotton candy and he thought it was just part of his costume. He asked me what it was and I told him. I went and got some for him to try.
This is the look on his face after the first bite! I love it! He said "Hmmm, that's weird, it's kinda cottony."
They had a band playing music in the barn. It was so loud, I wish they had turned the sound down. My mom got Noah to dance with her. I think he thinks dancing is soooo silly!
Noah took this picture of Kendall and I when we got home. We were a pioneer couple. The kids had a good time. There ghost costumes where no longer white at the end of the evening because of all the mud! I can't believe Halloween is over and now we are planning Thanksgiving and Christmas! Where did this year go???
