Twas' the Night Before Halloween

Our friends came over last night for some Halloween fun and also motivated us to get our pumpkin carved (we have been putting this off) and I now think we are ready for some trick-or-treat action tonight.

The kids enjoyed making their own pizzas for dinner.

We also hiked across our backyard over to the park for the Spooktacular Walking Trail event.

I loved this pumpkin entry. "Save the Pumpkins, Eat Apple Pie." Cute!

This year they even had a small hay ride event that looped around our house. The kids liked passing our house on the ride.

And the winners of our very own pumpkin carving contest are...

I drew the face on the pumpkin for Wes to carve. Now you all know why I rarely attempt to do anything crafty. My sister must have gotten all of the pumpkin carving/decorating genes in the family as last year she won a carving contest as she was able to carve a volleyball with flames on a pumpkin. She didn't even use a stencil, as it was done on the spot.
