Halloween

Cute little tiger.

Halloween

Bryce and I weren't exactly festive this year for Halloween.

We didn't dress up, we bought our pumpkin from

Krogers the day before Halloween and we missed a

Halloween party at the Henricksen's.

sigh.

It was still a fun weekend though.

We carved our pumpkin.

The finished product...

Ghost pumkin lit up.

Our next door neighbor is an older woman who has been collecting Halloween decorations and

didn't have enough room in her yard so she kindly decorated our yard as well.

At least we looked festive!

She used the more elaborate decor for her yard.



We enjoyed some delicious broccoli cheese potato soup for
dinner and later had some hot chocolate while waiting for trick
or treaters. Unfortunately we didn't have as many ghosts and
goblins come to our door as I would have hoped so we still have
 a bowl full of candy. Happy Halloween!

Pumpkins + Caramel Apples= "It's good!"

We had a fantastic evening carving pumpkins and making caramel apples at the Tycksen home last night. Every one was fighting over the only two carving knives we had so I decided to paint my pumpkin instead. Now I will have you know that one year I painted an almost realistic Frankenstein on my pumpkin. It was amazing. So this year I thought I could do it from memory but it DID NOT even come close to my other one. It was amateur work, but it was still fun.

























Aren't these two just so cute? I LOVE my brother and Megs

Bryce played Wii with the girls after carving pumpkins, but he lost.

Emilee has been a little out of control lately and decided to dye her hair purple...ok, it was for a carnival.

Thanks mom and dad for a fun night!

I love being with my hubby! He makes me so incredibly happy!

This is Bryce's pumpkin lit up. He thought it would be funny to put a Y on the tombstone. NOT a funny joke at the Tycksen home. He can't carve a pumpkin next year.
