We had a fun Halloween this year! I love this holiday! First our ward had a Trunk or Treat on Friday. We ate yummy soups and desserts, and the kids had a costume parade before we headed outside for The Trunk-or-Treat. As usual, Rand and I couldn't agree on a costume for Avery. As a back up I got a little Pirate costume before everything was sold out... Just in case we still didn't make up our minds before it was too late. We ended up just using it, and I must say that Avery makes one cute Pirate! Avery didn't quite understand the trunk-or-treating, but she loved running from car to car saying Hi to everyone. Here are a few pictures after the trunk or treating was over:
The cutest pig and pirate in town!

| We went out and had a campfire at the state park near here on Sat. night (sorry, no pics.), then we carved our pumpkins on Sunday night. |

| Avery thought is was pretty cool and got pretty excited, but didn't really like getting the pumpkin guts on her hands. |
She loved pretending to scoop out the empty pumpkins though
Hi everyone!
Our finished pumpkins...
The small one in the middle was our puking pumpkin. We didn't get a picture with the guts coming out of it's mouth- sorry! The neighborhood kids love it!
Halloween night we got together for dinner with a bunch of our friends for a chili dinner and then headed out to Trick-or -Treat with the kids! Avery did much better this time, she ran right up to the door and held out her bucket! At first she was a little confused why we were knocking on doors but not going inside, but she caught on pretty quick. She did get tired of walking and I had to hold her towards the end, but it was a great night with awesome weather!
Here she is modeling her costume before it got dark

Believe it or not, she actually kept that eye patch on for a while! She loved wearing it, but didn't love not being able to see..
Happy Halloween!
