last night, we carved our pumpkin for family night.
(like i'm sure 99% of the LDS community did!)
matt picked out the design, i drew it on the pumpkin, matt carved it out, and chet... well... he made a mess, and stabbed things with the butter knife we let him hold on to.
he totally doesn't remember carving a pumpkin last year, so i could tell he didn't understand what we were doing.
but when we put a candle in the pumpkin, and turned off the lights, he thought it was *magical*.
his face was priceless!
this afternoon we had our first taste of trick-or-treating for the year.
our friends, natalie and max, invited the boys and i to join them trick-or-treating at melaluca.
after all my years here in rexburg, i have never really understood what melaluca is.
all i know is that it seems like everyone works there. ev-ry-one!
anyhoo, turns out they put together a neat little halloween party for kids.
the place was decorated so well, the employees were all super friendly, and chet and max got lots of candy. total success.
after that, we went to porter park, dumped out our loot, indulged in some treats, and got silly.
we have 4 different trick or treating events that we could possibly attend tomorrow, so there is more candy and much more silliness to come!
