Halloween Fun

About a week before Halloween my mom and I decided to take the girls to the Pumpkin Festival in Stansbury, and boy did Munroe have a good time.

Of course the food, and treats were the best thing in Munroe's opinion, but I thought the booths and entertainment were really fun.

One nice things about going to the Festival was seeing Ken's Gymnastics preform. The kids preforming did a nice job, and so I've now put Munroe into that gymnastics program, and she is LOVING IT!!

Here are a couple of fun pictures from the Festival. Munroe and Sienna were dressed up in their costumes, and they looked very cute, or if you ask Munroe, she's not cute, she's Scary.






Monday before Halloween we decided that for Family Home Evening we'd carve pumpkins. We went to Walmart, and picked out a couple of very nice pumpkins.
Munroe had already picked out a pumpkin at her grandma Leak's house down in there field a few days earlier, and so we had 3 pumpkins that needed to be transformed into masterpieces.

This is Munroe's finished pumpkin, and I have to say, she did a really good job. She carved the face almost entirely by herself. I was impressed.

We had a great time carving the pumpkins, and cleaning out the "guts", as Munroe puts it. We'll just have to wait till next year to see what creative pumpkin faces Munroe and Sienna will come up with. I'm looking forward to that.





Halloween had finally arrived, and not a minute to late. Munroe has been asking me for weeks when we were going to go trick or treating, and I was finally able to say, tonight.

Of course the day didn't seem to pass quite fast enough for my little money-hunny. By the time we were getting ready to go meet our good friends Heather, Sami, and Griff, Munroe was so anxious to leave I practically had to force her to smile for some pictures. (And believe me you can tell by the look on her face in a couple of the pictures.) lol

Once we were gone, and out trick or treating, Munroe was as happy as could be. Well, at least till she started to get cold; but that wasn't till about an hour and a half into the trick or treating. By the end of the night Munroe's bag was full of candy, (a benifit of which I would partake of later that evening.) and we had had a wonderful time.
