Halloween

(Dan nom-ing a loaf of banana bread from a guy whose computer he fixed.) 
We aren't doing anything spectacular for Halloween, nothing except sitting at home doing homework and hoping trick-or-treater's come by. We aren't dressing up, and we missed the ward Halloween party last Wednesday (because of homework).


We did, however, carve some pumpkins we got at Albertsons.
 Mine is the one in the front! Dan's is the one with all the scars. That's why he picked it.
(I got excited to carve it, as you can see the from the knife sticking up out of mine in the last two photos.)



I learned that you should not wear your Sunday clothes to carve pumpkins.


Once Dan got most of his pumpkin scooped out he grabbed a paring knife and got to work. I didn't know what to do with mine at first. Last year I when I carved my very first pumpkin all by myself I was all cool and carved a kitty on a fence with the moon in the background. This year I decided I didn't need to get all artsy so I went for a scary face.
 Husband-Man's is on the left (he added more scars) and mine is on the right. I'm rather proud.

Happy Halloween!


BONUS! We got one whole trick-or-treater this year! Woohoo!! It was this little girl dressed up in a red skirt, coat, and devil horns, carried by her mom. Mom was the one to do the whole routine- ring the doorbell, say "trick or treat!" and pick a candy. The little girl looked like she was so over it, but mom looked rather happy as she walked away.
