Pumpkin Carving!!! Happy Halloween!!!!

Our Friday fun this week was to carve our pumpkins! Chase thought it was pretty cool, probably more so that he was in the middle of the table, therefore the center of attention (like he's not the center of attention most of the time).



We cut the top off and asked Chase what he thought about pulling out pumpkin guts...



He seemed pretty happy about that idea, so we let him have at it...



I don't think he quite knew what to think about all the slime, but he examined it for a while...



I pulled out a lot of the guts I like the slime!!



Then the carving began. Chase LOVES a character on Nick Jr called Moose A. Moose. Every time this weird looking Moose comes on, or if he just hears his voice, Chase smiles huge and zones onto the the tv. They had stencils of Moose A. Moose on the Nickelodeon website, so Daddy carved Chase a Moose pumpkin...



Chase was so excited, but it took a little while to get it done, so in the meantime Chase read his Halloween cards from DeeDee and Bobo and from Nanny and Poppy, thank you for sending the cards!! Chase was excited to get his own mail...



At last the pumpkins are done... a Moose A. Moose and of course... a Denver Bronco. I originally picked out the bigger pumpkin, but I sacrificed the big pumpkin so Chase could have a bigger Moose... the things we do for our kids. :)



For Halloween, we went down to the Brookside area for some Boohaha. There were a MILLION kids out there. Our church had the best place to trick or treat with free pony rides and a petting zoo. Next year Chase will have a blast with that. For Boohaha Chase wore his pirate hat and socks, then when it warmed up in the afternoon, he put on the Batman outfit Grampy had gotten for him and we went to hand out candy with DeeDee and Bobo while Daddy got some sleep before he went to work.
