Pre-Halloween

Well, we carved pumkins last night. I figured since Jamie is getting older and can remember more things we have to make sure that we do all the normal holiday stuff so that he can have nice memories of things. So he got to stick his hand inside the pumkins and get all gooey! I did two pumkins with his "help" and Scott as the camera-man. Everytime I would start doing something in one of the pumkins, Jamie would want to do that, so I would move to the other pumkin, and guess what Jamie wanted to do now? :) So we made a happy pumkin and a silly pumkin. I was pretty tired since we had to wait until Finn was in bed, since he gets so mad at us when he can't do what he wants, and who knows what that would be around gooey pumpkins and knifes? But the pumpkins are done! The other pictures are of a pumpkin party at Forest Lawn in San Dimas. Scott and his mom took the kids on Tuesday afternoon while I was at work. Jamie dressed up as a pirate like last year, since his Peter Pan costume is made of a thin velvet that we thought might get messed up easily, and Finn wore his lion costume from this year. When we tried it on him at Toy R Us we were all laughing so hard, we knew it was the one! He is sooo cute in it! So we are all ready for tonight. We are taking the kids to our churches "Trunk or Treat" where everyone lines up their cars in the parking lot and decorates them and fills them with candy. So you don't have to take your kids to a bunch of houses of people you don't know, you can just walk them through the parking lot. It's a lot of fun and there are a lot of people there, which is a nice outreach for the church, since the people around know it's a safe place to take their kids. Unfortunatly Jamie doesn't forget things like that he will get a big bag of candy tonight, like he did last year! The other day he told Scott's mom that he needed something to eat, since he is a growing boy. She asked him what he wanted and he said "candy"! He is so funny! I am very worried about when he gets older and realizes the full potential of his "talets"!
