Halloween, 10-31-2009

Halloween afternoon we went to Sam and Heidi's to carve pumpkins. It was fun to see the kids so excited, they could hardly sit still (especially when we tried to take their picture). Although, I can't say I blame them, I remember as a kid being so excited for Halloween. When Sam and I were younger, we would draw a map of our neighborhood before Halloween, so we could map out the fastest route to get the most candy.

Heidi was a wonderful host. She made Carrot Chowder (always a favorite), rolls, caramel popcorn, cupcakes, and a bunch of other snacks. Thank you Heidi so much for all your hard work!

Karlee, getting ready to go trick-or-treat!

Kortney, also very excited.

We tried to get a picture with them both looking at the camera. I'm just glad we got one where they were both standing. They we so hyper and just running all over the yard. Andrew loved chasing Carter and trying to "catch" his tail.

The two little fairies... Katie and Kortney.

All the pumpkins we carved. Happy Halloween!
