Happy Halloween!

Of course on Halloween Day we had to do a few traditional Halloween activities. My mom and dad had a pumpkin for us to carve and we headed to the local high school for a little trick or treating.

Ben did not want to even touch the inside goo, let alone help me pull it out. Oh well.

Piper and Nana had a good time watching.

My finished product.

Nate wasn't as proud as I was.

The "trunk or treat" at the high school. They had a great crowd show up. It was pretty chilly so this ended up being our only trick or treating for the day.

Our dinner! Yummy American pizza!

Dessert!

Halloween Morning

On the 31st everyone woke up in a bit of a funk. Piper was completely exhausted and everyone else felt a cold coming on.

MMM - Papa Jake's donuts!!

Ben's HUGE barrell of cheese balls thanks to Nana!

The guinea's and turkey in my parent's front yard.

Pre-Halloween at Nana and Papa's

The day after we got into Missouri we jumped right in to activities. Ben had a great time riding the lawn tractor with Papa and we also were able to go to the park and ride the train.

Nana and Papa met us at the airport with balloons which Ben loved playing with!

My mom also thought it would be funny to take a picture of my trying to change Piper.

It was so pretty outside.

Yay for the tractor!! Piper didn't care for it but Nate loved it!

My parent's neighbors have chickens, guineas and a turkey. Ben was fascinated with checking out their chicken house and chasing them around.


Here is Nate and Piper checking out the decorations at the park.

Uncle Rob!

Ben and I on the train.

We tried to get a decent group picture and this was the best we could do...

Later in the evening we went to a Halloween party at the convention hall. It was soo crowded we didn't stay very long.

Nate has figured out how to get into the bottled water thanks to big brother Ben.
