Mostly treats...

We had a wonderful Halloween yesterday! I hope you did too!!

Here are a few pictures of our fun times :)

Here are the 2 pumpkins that Bennett designed:
The pumpkin on the left is Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars. The one on the right is Brad, complete with drawn on glasses and cross necklace. In case you are wondering, I am learning to give up control one step at a time... the pumpkin designing this year was a step in that direction :)

We had a wonderful time with our neighbors at our annual hayride - it was cold, but it was fun!!

In years past, there has been a guy with a chainsaw that has induced terror in our hayriding clan. This year, the kids were ready. They talked about him all night long. Bennett called him the 'Chainsaw Master' and was ready to defend us with his light saber. The Chainsaw Master never showed up... this year, he was able to bring plenty of fear with just the anticipation of his arrival :)


As you can see, we are still having issues with Bennett's 'smile' face. Remember this?? This crazy-smile-and-crazy-eye-thing has been going on for quite a while. Sometimes I am lucky enough to get some really good pictures (like these) and I think that this phase is over. And then, I am confronted with moments like last night...

I'm learning to just give up, though. I'll look back on these pictures one day and remember this awkward time, right?? His sweetness makes up for his lack of a picture face :)
