our halloween in 2013.

We had a great Halloween this year. It was fun and not too cold. It was also Emmett's first time trick-or-treating. Years past he just wanted to ride in the stroller, but this year he actually wanted to go to the door himself and ask for candy. He also ate the most candy he has ever had in one sitting. Bad move. Fortunately, he didn't throw it all up, but he did stay up past midnight and drive the rest of us crazy! Next year we will be paying closer attention to the candy intake.

The first part of the fun consisted of decorating gourds. Years past we have carved/decorated pumpkins, but they are always demolished by squirrels. This year we made it simple.  
Emmett liked painting his versus drawing on it
so creative

We went to our annual church Halloween party the weekend before Halloween. This is always fun and safe. There are carnival games, crafts, and contests. Also, parents decorate their cars in the parking lot and all the kids go around and 'trunk-or-treat' for candy. :)
  
there was a fun photo booth app set up for families to get photos together.

Midweek, Emmett wanted to wear his costume to Culver's. It was hilarious. He loves his skeleton costume.

Thursday night we went trick-or-treating as a family and Ethnie's friend Olivia and her mom came with us. We went around two blocks and their bags were filled!
 yes, the only shot I got of both of them looking at the camera is blurry. ugh.

Hope you all had a great Halloween! Now that it's November, I guess the snow can come. And tomorrow it shall. (deep down I'm dreading it.)
