Halloween fun

We had such a great Halloween week! We started off the week by carving pumpkins with Scott, Kelly and Liz. Liz enjoyed eating the pumpkin more than carving it... :) On Halloween, I took Kaden to Shane's work for a Trick-or-Treat that they have every year. The company provides the candy and the spouses bring the kiddos and go office to office getting lots of candy! Kaden wasn't in the best mood because he had only slept 20 minutes when I had to wake him up to go. So, he just cuddled with Shane the whole time we went around (although, everyone still thought he was so stinkin' cute). :D I worked ALL week with Kaden to be more open to the idea of wearing a head piece thing that was part of his costume, but he never wore it for more than a half of a second. Luckily, he was so tired at Shane's work...he wore it! He didn't let us tie it, but hey, I will take what I can get and it stayed on. :) YAY! Then, Halloween night, we went to Danny and Stephanie's house and trick-or-treated around their neighborhood for a bit. Kelly and Liz came, too, which was so fun because Liz's costume was pretty much the cutest thing you will ever see. I don't have any good pictures of it, but Stephanie took some with her good camera so as soon as she emails those to me, I will post them. Liz was Dorothy and Kaden was the Cowardly Lion and Kelly was the Wicked Witch! Danny took Kaden door to door in the neighborhood because with it being so dark, we were pretty sure Shane would have tripped over something and hurt himself and/or Kaden. :) After the trick-or-treating, we went back to Danny and Stephanie's home and ate a YUMMY dinner (ribs, DANG good potatoes, salad, french bread...what more can a pregnant woman want?!). It was a fun night and Kaden has enjoyed eating his bucketful of candy. Of course, Shane and I have graciously sacrificed and eaten the things Kaden can't (anything with nuts...snickers, baby ruth, etc.). Enjoy the pictures! Hope everyone had a great Halloween!

Everyone hard at work carving their masterpieces...

Liz chowin' down on her raw pumpkin.

Kaden not caring at all what we were up to...he was just interested in The Lion King.

TA DA! The finished products!!

Shane andI both agreed that Scott and Kelly's pumpkins were the best-so creative and cute!

Kaden and Daddy Trick-Or-Treating at the office. Notice Puppy always at Kaden's side..haha. Kaden was really interested in these two dogs that were there and dressed up. He couldn't figure out what a pumpkin dog was! haha
Going Trick-Or-Treating for the first time! That wicked witch is Kelly and Liz is hiding, but she looked ADORABLE!

Thanks for letting us tag along. We had a great time and the food was soo good. I can't wait to see the pictures that Steph took. I have a funny picture of Liz crying while Kaden is pulling one of her braids. lol Too bad she wouldn't smile cute for the camera like Kaden did (and always does). I will have to post it on my blog soon. Thanks again!!
