Jane was extatic about everything Halloween. She had a lot of festivities between school and friends and church and was constantly bringing the Halloween spirit to our home.Saturday we carved our pumpkins. Jane jumped right in tearing out the 'pumpkin guts' but Grant was totally freaked out by them! The kid who eats anything and is into everything wouldn't put his hand inside the pumpkin. It was hilarious!
On Halloween, I had to go to class all night so I tried to make the most of the hours I did have with the kids. We made 'Witch's Brew' (aka homemade Root Beer) and the kids loved it!!! They fought over who got to stir and they kept waving thier hands over the dry ice fog in a sinister-witchy sort of way. We also got a Jack-O-Lantern pizza from Papa Murphy's and Jane thought it was the best thing ever. I wanted to take the kids trick-or-treating before class so we went out around 4:30 pm and hit 4 houses before we had to head in and eat dinner so I could leave. I was so sad I almost cried driving to school. Trent took them trick-or-treating around the rest of our neighborhood and then went down to his parent's house in Lehi and took them around their neighborhood. He kept waiting for them to get tired out, but those little Energizer Bunnies just kept going. They took home quite the loot! 
(Trent had to keep emptying their buckets into a bag so they could keep going). I can't wait for next year. . .Pumpkins. . . . . . . . . . . . $6

Ha ha ha! Grant's pumpkin guts picture and Jane's witches brew picture at the bottom made me laugh out loud! So much fun. I'm sad you had to miss the evening. I know how much you love it. Next year will be just as fabulous!
Great post! I'm sorry you had class last night. You really got some great pictures of the kids. Grant's face while emptying the pumpkin is classic!
Holy cow, you are SUCH a fun mom! Even though you weren't able to be there for the whole thing, you definitely are making HUGE long lasting memories with your kids! AWESOME!!
This picture of Grant as he was scooping the guts out is hilarious, Seppi kept asking to wash his hands when we carved our pumpkins, he was like "is this something I'm supposed to like?" ha ha.
they're just really TOUGH kids. ha ha.
This last picture of Jane is great too! like she really believes that it's witches brew. p.s. she totally looks like you in this picture, just her fun dramatic expression (don't take that the wrong way, its totally cute!).
Let's play k? SOON..

Isn't Halloween so much fun when you have kids! I just loved reading the stories about your kids. They are hilarious! Looks like Kelli and Jane were the same thing for Halloween. How cute!
