Happy Halloween

We had a great Halloween! We were lucky enough to be able to spend this Halloween with some family who visited us from Utah. Grandma Joyce and Grandma and Grandpa Ouzts came to see Dallin and help me adjust to having 3 boys.

The first Halloween thing we did was carve pumpkins. Not just normal pumpkins, but huge pumpkins, that our friends Mike and Marjorie got for the boys from the local pumpkin patch. Thanks M&M!

Luke was having too much fun stabbing his pumpkin. Poor pumpkin.
Even Grandpa Ouzts got in on the fun. Austin picked Grandma Joyce to help him with his pumpkin. Who needs mom when grandma is around?

Good job guys!

The next fun project we got to do with grandma was paint ceramic pumpkins. These ones we can keep and use every year to remember our fun Halloween with grandma.

Lucas decided it was more fun to paint grandma's hand. Grandma was a good sport and played along.

Before long she was rubbing the pumpkin. This gives new meaning to hand painting! I was hoping for the pumpkin genie to pop out and grant me 3 wishes.

Before long, painting grandma's hand turned into painting themselves.

Austin had like 5 layers of paint. It was flaking off. Good Halloween look.

Lucas got a little help with his pumpkin belly. He had to get a picture with a ceramic tiger he painted.
And of course there were costumes and Trick-or-Treating.

Here is Dallin and his 1st Halloween costume. His shirt says "I love my mummy" Thanks to his cousin Allison for the shirt.

Man they are cute, if I do say so myself.

Buzz is soo ready to go trick-or-treating.
