Halloween 2009

I figured I should probably blog about all of our Halloween happenings before it's Thanksgiving already!

This year we started off the Halloween fun with a trip to a local rec center for a trick-or-treat. It was cute. The rec center employees dressed up and passed out candy. This was the first time that Jack understood trick-or-treating and he LOVED it!!!

{YUMMY!}

Next, we hit up the Trunk-or-Treat at Adam's parent's ward. Good times. More candy.

The night before Halloween we finally carved our pumpkin. Jack was VERY into the whole thing, and so proud of the finished product.

{We gave Jack his own little plastic knife and let him "carve" after Daddy. I love the look in his face. He took it so seriously.}

Halloween morning pumpkin chocolate chip pancakes were made over at the Fagan's. I slept through the whole thing! Adam brought one over to me later.

Y-U-M-M-Y!

That night we went to the Lund's house for pizza with the family, and then on to our ward's Trunk-or-Treat. Pizza was GOOD. Trunk-or-Treat was kinda lame (we hardly saw anyone from our ward).

After Trunk-or-Treat, we hit up a few houses in our neighborhood (Jack was just having too much fun trick-or-treating), passed out some of our own candy, and hung out with the neighbors (check out the Fagan's blog for more pictures). Fun times!

Currently I am gaining about a pound a day from all the candy I've been eating. Letting all that yummy chocolate go to waste would be a crime, right?
