Trick or Treat

I made some yummy pumpkin spice cake with cream cheese frosting

Helping Daddy out.

Look at the loves of my life.

Dig out those guts.

They look identical. I sometimes wonder if she has any of my genetics.

The little cow ready to get some candy.

Just before a massive sneeze. Thanks Mommy for blinding me with your flash.

She loves trick or treating!

This is her upset that I told her were going home.

I’m a few days late on our Halloween post. I guess better late then never! I hope that everyone had an amazing Halloween and ate lots of candy. Reagan had so much fun with her first trick or treating experience. She picked out her Halloween costume back in September as we were strolling through Costco. She fell in love with cows, while we were living in England. We used to plan our days around when the cows were walking up to get milked. It was no surprise that she had to have the cow costume for her Halloween costume. I think that her favorite thing about Halloween was carrying a pumpkin bucket around and people putting something in it. I was hoping to get another year of her not getting candy, but while Mommy was not looking Daddy gave her some candy.

Jake and I officially carved Jack O’ lanterns this year. In the almost 10 years we have been together we have never carved pumpkins before. Jake had the great idea of doing Sesame Street characters, from one of those carving books. The bad thing was that we didn’t have giant pumpkins, which made for carving extremely hard. We had to shrink the pictures down to fit on our pumpkins. In the end Jake’s was the only one that turned out great. What can I say he is a perfectionist, while I rushed through my carving experience. My Bert was okay, but didn’t stand a chance next to Jake’s. I then broke the knife while trying to carve Reagan’s pumpkin with an Elmo face. I didn’t get a finished picture, but you’re not missing much of anything.

Were getting a bit more settled in our house, and it’s starting to look more like a home. I’m hoping that by Thanksgiving it will be put together! I can’t believe that the holidays are upon us!
