Halloween!

We had a busy weekend of Halloween Festivities this year! Saturday morning we started out at the pumpkin patch to pick out some pumpkins for carving. We went to a costume party at Old Navy and the boys got free T-shirts for dressing up and also a bunch of $1 Halloween shirts to wear this week. We ended up at Boo at the Zoo in Birmingham. The boys both really liked the Planet of the Apes Haunted House, but the candy, rides, animals & shows were a hit too!


Sunday we carved our pumpkins, stuffed ghosts to hang in the trees & decorated the yard with a big bale of hay we spray painted like a huge pumpkin & put some purple mums out. We spent the afternoon at Grace Baptist Church's Halloween festival. We ended the weekend lighting our pumpkins up & making caramel apples & pears! YUMMY!

Jack had to have a costume too - but he wasn't so happy about his!

Hanging the stuffed ghosts - you have to get really high in the tree to get the good limbs.

The chickens ate Austin's pumpkins teeth while we were at the Church carnival - oops!
Who would have known?!?!
