Halloween festivities

 This year we decided to start a "Boo" around our neighborhood.  I let the boys pick out what they wanted o make about a week before we made them so I would have time to get to the store and everything and they decided on "mummy cupcakes" (found on pinterest).  They were calling them "mommy" cupcakes and it wasn't until the day we were making them that I realized it wasn't just a pronunciation problem.  Chase asked me if we could make "daddy cupcakes too".  That's when I realized the boys didn't know what a mummy was :)



They enjoyed making the cupcakes as much as delivering them.

The boys had so much fun sneaking them to the neighbors houses.  Brody and I would find a spot to hide while Daniel and Chase would take them up and ring the door bell and run.  Then we would all watch as they tried to find us.  Chase had so much fun with it.  Brody just wanted to eat the cupcakes and wondered why we were giving them all away :)


 Then we came home and each got one of the reject ones. (as you can see some of the mummy's ended up with a few too many eyes:)







PUMPKIN CARVING


Brody was game to dig right in and help out.

Chase has always hated the pumpkin carving and when he quickly turned his back, folded his arms and refused to touch any nasty pumpkin guts.   I wiped some on his face to give him a hard time and Daniel forced his hand into the pumpkin.  That's when the gagging started.  We left him alone after that :)


We had Chase draw the design for the pumpkin and Daniel cut it out.  It's my favorite pumpkin ever!



 Of course I had to force them into some pictures. 



They would only take one with me if we did crazy faces :)
