We carved Jack-O-Lanterns (or is it Jack'O Lanterns?). This was the first year I let the kids design their own pumpkins and let the big kids carve their own pumpkins. We only lost three or four fingers to the attempt! (Kidding, not even a scratch...)
It is harder than you think to keep a curious 11 month-old away from open flame or from crawling off a dining table.
Just so you know.
The kids had their Halloween Parade and parties at school. They were excited to march around the field and I was happy it wasn't raining.
And last, but certainly not least--we had our church Halloween Party. We ate chili, corn bread and pumpkin pie. We roamed around a few of the in door activities. Most importantly of all--the Trunk-or-Treat! Lorien was allowed to go trunk to trunk with her friend while Will took the younger kids around. As a result, Lorien was free to hit every car two or three times while Wyatt and Clare had to stop at "once around the parking lot".
You can imagine the tummy aches that followed.
Happy Fall!
