Our favorite little Halloween conversation of the day: Henry to Papa 'Trick or Treat!', Papa: 'Gosh I guess we'd better get some candy', Henry: 'I'll take a trick then!'.
Our favorite little football conversation of the day: Ava to Henry 'I like the Ducks do you like the Squeezers?, Carl to Ava 'Do you mean Beavers?', Ava back to Carl 'Yeah, the Sneezers--Papa likes them!'. Perhaps her hearing has been affected by those ear drum ruptures. Either way I am in stitches anytime I think about her saying this. She always speaks with such conviction and enthusiasm!
Worst costume: Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader giving out candy--not appropriate and not a good look! I actually gasped when she opened the door.
Carl created some elaborate pumpkins this week as is our tradition. He appeared at work on Friday as Dwight Shrute from The Office--now THAT was a good look. Sadly, my photo is pretty shoddy.
Oh and did I mention the Ducks beat USC 47-20? Carl was a very happy man.
It was a Happy Halloween!
The only photo of all 3 of them--Ava, a butterfly, Elyse, a pumpkin, and Henry, a spider (thanks to my mom and her iPhone...hopefully we'll do better next year!)
Loves from a very nice Mexican gentleman who oddly resembles Grandpa B! :)
The porch
Henry's African Pumpkin and Ava's Butterfly Pumpkin (note the fun Mr. Potato Head type pumpkins that were one of our many Halloween activities this week--Ava was especially fond of this little piggy)
Elyse's pumpkin that mimics her ponytails and one tooth (though a second broke through on Oct. 28th...) and mine with the many polka-dots...
Last but not least the Oregon pumpkin for my main squeeze
Dwight Shrute in all his dimly lit glory
