Pumpkins!

Friday afternoon we went downtown for the Halloween walk. Maya wore her fairy costume from last year. Alex stayed in his Zeus costume from school that morning. I left my camera in the car because when we arrived downtown it was sleeting! It cleared up decently and we had a great time, saw lots of friends and the kids scored a ton of candy.

Saturday we spent most of the day in the yard raking leaves and playing. It wasn't a really great day to be outside but mostly dry and comfortable with hats/gloves.

Sunday afternoon we finally got around to carving our pumpkins. Maya designed hers by herself and Ben cut it (it's the smiling one). Alex designed and carved his all by himself. It has 5 eyes, 2 noses and 2 mouths. The last one was made with a template design.
