Happy Halloween

Why, Helloooo!

Halloween has come and gone and I would say it was another successful holiday!

This year Jack went as a 1920s gangster. I don’t know why or how he thought it up. But, he planned it from top to bottom and absolutely loved his costume!

Jason and Jack carved pumpkins.

Jack worked on his own this year. Just a helpful hint: eat lunch before carving, not while carving. Jack’s lunch was ready for him right after he started carving. He couldn’t eat. The “guts” made him lose his appetite. Especially since Jason’s guts which were a little rotten. (ew)

Sam mowed while the pumpkins were being carved.Pumpkin smells and guts are not a favorite of Sam’s. You may think he is giving the boys a thumbs up for the amazing carved decorations they are creating with their pumpkins. Well, you are correct. It has nothing to do with him hitting the side of the fountain and telling his dad all was good still.fullsizerender

Jack’s finished pumpkin. Notice he has a mustache and a little top hat!

Jack placed his creation in the flower urn which was perfect for angling his face!

What a welcoming front porch!  (smile)img_0798

Wonder how long these guys will last until something decides to eat them!

PS: Sam did come into the garage after mowing lawn. He stayed as far away from the mess as possible. He got inside with only one gag!

I am very proud of him! Every year he gets a little better with the whole pumpkin carving event!

Here’s Jack before heading out to trick or treat. He slicked his hair back to look even more “gansta” (his hat is on the pmpking)  But, I’m not sure the AK Nerf gun helped the outfit…along with a computer bag of all his treats!

People asked if Jack if he was the Monopoly man, or a poker dealer, or part of a quartet!

Since Trick or Treat was on a Sunday night, Jack had to get ready for school and bed when we got home. He didn’t get to do the fun sorting of the candy.

Doesn’t seem to have stopped Jason from checking out all the loot though!
