Our tradition is to carve pumpkins on Halloween morning (which works well for Florida since the heat makes them rot so quickly!) Big brother was very careful to collect all the seeds so there were lots for him to eat after they were roasted. He loves pumpkin seeds!

Little brother loved the pumpkin goo! He squished and squashed and put it on his head…then started throwing it across the kitchen and onto the wall behind him.


Baby sister’s first Halloween and first pumpkin carving experience!

This was the first year that big brother carved his own pumpkin all by himself! He used the pumpkin carving kit and did the face on his own without help. We think he did a terrific job!

Earlier in the week, we stuffed scarecrows to make a scarecrow family of us and had those out as our Halloween decorations.

Big brother picked everyone’s costume this year:

Baby sister as Leia:

Little brother as Yoda:

Big brother as Luke Skywalker:

“Luke, I am your father.”
