It's the Great Pumpkin

Our first Halloween as a family has come to an end. I can't imagine a more perfect fall day to celebrate such a wonderful Peagan holiday. Last night we carved three of the pumpkins from Tara's garden and created a miniature version of our little family (check out Little Pumpkin Kennedy with her two teeth). Once they were lit, throw in some scary music, a bowl of candy, and let the trick or treating begin.

Since Kennedy is still so small, most of the evening involved her giving out candy (although for her giving out candy consists of grabbing a candy and sticking it in her mouth!). We were fortunate to have several visitors at the house, including different members of the ward and especially the Duncans! After Tara and Kennedy hit up a few of the neighbors for candy we went over to Alicia's house and spent a few minutes checking out everyone's haul. You can tell from the picture that the kids were pretty much finished with Halloween by the time we left. Oh well, good times!

Another Halloween has come and gone. Every year seems like the same thing. Thirty one days of anticipation and within a few hours, it's over. Like with so many different aspects of life, you just can't live up to the hype. More over Halloween, here comes Thanksgiving.
