Happy Halloween and Boo!!!

We expanded halloween over several days and events, here's a little recap of our fun :)

Sunday we carved pumpkins! We cut the tops off of the pumpkins and cleaned out the guts....we tried to get Kayden to touch the guts but he wouldn't have anything to do with it! However once we got our little carving kit out which had a special little scooper, Kayden seemed more interested. He didn't touch any of the guts, but his scoop found some seeds. Lol. My kooky little child. Then someone got cranky and needed a nap. So.....Kayden napped and Brett and I carved. It was perfect! When Kayden got up he had three pumpkins all carved! Dad even carved a special one just for Kayden! He loves the pumpkins. He comes home and wants the lights turned on inside them.

Tuesday was mom's work event, the 22nd Annual Halloween Fest. Dad brought Kayden to do some trick or treating downtown. Well someone wasn't a fan of their costume and wanted nothing to do with it. So he stripped down to his shorts and tshirt. Then he was only compliant if he had a piece of candy....... Needless to say he and dad left shortly thereafter. He got a couple of pieces of candy but it just wasn't his cup of tea. Guess we'll try again next year when he's older.

The only picture we got of Kayden in his race car driver costume.

Wednesday was Halloween!!! Daycare was having a party for all the kids that afternoon. I couldn't attend, so I just sent his costume with him. And much to my surprise....he wore it for 2 hours!!! I guess having his friends dressed up helps. They had treats and goodies and from the sounds of it had a great time. Sad that I couldn't go, but its not the end of the world. After daycare we decided not to go trick or treating since Kayden doesn't really get it and mom and dad didn't need any more candy. So we went out to dinner and came home just as it got dark. So we grabbed our glow in the dark bubbles from OB and Lanny and headed outside. Kayden LOVED them!!! The bubbles didn't glow much, but the bottle and the solution sure did!

Glow in the dark bubbles!

Bubbles!!!

As simple as our festivities were, Kayden got to enjoy Halloween and we got our share of candy. We hope you had as much fun as we did!
