Pumpkin carving and Trick or Treating

We had a lot of fun celebrating Halloween!!! Jackson gets into the holidays more and more every year. Last week we went over to Bobby and Pa's to carve our big pumpkin. Bobby and I usually decide what to carve and Pa is the one who does the carving. He is very good at it too!! This year we decided to carve Mickey Mouse into the pumpkin. We got the pattern and idea off of a plastic light up Mickey pumpkin that Aunt Jane sent to Jack earlier this month. Jackson enjoyed picking the "guts" out of the pumpkin. He kept calling it seaweed.








 
 

Last night we enjoyed  Trick or Treating with some friends and their kids. We had quite the cute group! Jackson was a Jack in the Box. Toby came up with the idea a few months ago. We have always loved the idea of homemade costumes. Toby made the costume entirely by himself with very little input or help from me. I think he did an excellent job, if I say so myself! Jackson was very proud wearing his box.
