We're about a week behind, but here are our Halloween pictures!
Caleb is Nemo (he was so excited!). He has fins, but you can't really tell. And since it was cold I made a hat to go along with it. Justin was P. Sherman. Hence the goggles and scrubs (he's a dentist). I was gonna be Dorie and Mackenzie was gonna be first Squirt, then Pearl...but neither one of her costumes nor my costume came to fruition. So we weren't worth taking pictures of. Apparently.
The Ward Trunk or Treat was so much fun! We took turns manning our car for the other kiddos (and there's a lot...3 nurseries, 3 sunbeams...) while the other spouse took Caleb around. So much candy! He had fun saying "trick or treat" (sounds like a bird). And it was good practice for real Halloween.
Most of the houses on Halloween just had bowls outside because all the other parents were out with their kids too. So, first we took turns, but then I told Justin to just come on with us. Caleb had no problem just grabbing candy from the bowls. He loved being able to do it! And now he's always asking for "Halloween candy." I love how holidays are getting to be more fun as Caleb gets more excited about them!
Justin and I had fun carving pumpkins. The scary face one is mine. Justin did a fabulous job on his Jack-O-Lantern. He decided to go along with our Finding Nemo theme and carved Nemo. WOW! Caleb loved it (though I think he liked the big gaping mouth on mine)
It was a great holiday. I had fun making Caleb's costume and carving our pumpkin and just enjoying the time with my family. Here's to more to come!

Caleb's costume turned out so cute!
and did Justin come up with his Nemo carving freehand, or did you guys have a pattern of some kind? Both pumpkins are awesome!
