Happy Halloween!

The boys had a great Halloween! Our new neighborhood is filled mostly with older children so the houses were a lot more 'scary' than in the past, but Ben was brave and walked up and eagerly shouted "Trick or Treat" (sometimes to closed doors) and always asked for a 2nd piece to put in his brother's bucket who was waiting in the wagon (AJ was not quite as brave as Ben)




Needless to say, I was NOT impressed with the selection they brought home this year. Thankfully we had some left overs of our own which I will get into before I finish this blog post.


Ben is excited hoarding his candy bowl (and snagged all the goodies from AJ's bucket, who was happy to oblige). This is the first year Ben can actually ENJOY his Halloween candy so it will be interesting to see how he rations things out.

Also, a few photos from the pumpkin patch when we took the boys back earlier in October - I neglected to post them. They had fun, as always and loved Layngs!

Eating popcorn (for the first time)..



Painting pumpkins...


Not sure this was the best idea, letting Ben go down on his own. If only there were video.

  1. I love Conductor Ben crying while Conductor AJ has a gleeful smile on his face. Very boy #2!
