Carving Pumpkins with Power Tools

This past weekend our friends Steve and Aimee and their kids came over to carve pumpkins.  After some pizza we headed to garage for some pumpkin carving.

We had a great time and found out that power tools make carving pumpkins a lot easier.  Now we have to figure out a cleaner and faster way of cleaning them out.  Yuck! 

Trick or Treating

We headed over to the Eggiman's for some Trick or Treating in their neighborhood.

Gavin as Tigger!

Roar!

Tigger and Tangled!

Group Photo!  Gavin wasn't too impressed!

I guess Gavin wanted to be the first for trick or treating.

We decided to put in the back in hopes he wouldn't leave!  He wasn't too happy!

First House here we come!

First attempt of a picture of Brayden and Kaitlyn!

Love this picture!

Gavin really got the hang of trick or treating!  He wasn't even shy!

I met my best friend Aimee four years ago on Halloween.  (Thanks to our husbands!)  They invited us over for a little bonfire in their driveway. Ever since that day.... we have built an amazing friendship. We had to celebrate our 4 year anniversary last night since they will be moving to a new home! We can't wait to create new memories there.

Brayden's (5 years old) attempt a picture of the adults!

Kaitlyn's (5 years old) first attempt at a group photo!

Kaitlyn's 2nd attempt... not too bad!
