Halloween!

Last night we went to our annual ward Trunk or Treat and it was a lot of fun! I didn't get any pictures at the party because there was too much going on but I did get some pictures before we left. Since the girls were the cutest insects you have ever seen, Jacob agreed to do a fun costume with me and put on some bumblebee wings and antennas. Everyone at church got a good laugh and Jacob was a sport for doing it!

Live Oak Pumpkin Patch

This year we decided to go to the Live Oak Pumpkin Patch because I was doing it as an outing for CAVA. We got to go on a tractor ride, learn about the different types of pumpkins, see animals in the petting zoo, and pick out our own pumpkins. My favorite part of the trip was seeing the turkey. It was so old and big and so funny! It kept getting mad at us and raising all of his feathers and then gobbling at us. Emma really got a kick out of it too. I think the girls really enjoyed this trip!

Carving Pumpkins

For the past five years (?) we have carved pumpkins with our good friends Neal and Meleah. They live in Long Beach so we don't get to see them too often but we always make time for our annual pumpkin carving and gingerbread house decorating. This year we have a couple of little ones with us so it is getting harder but they loved the pumpkins. We really enjoy this annual tradition!
