Happy Halloween!!!

This past week has been filled with Halloween activities. Ryan has had a great time running around with Daddy, Nana and Papa. Earlier in the week they went down do a pumpkin patch down the road to pick out a pumpkin to carve (which we never actually got around to doing).

So many to pick from...

Ok, this one looks good!

Ryan and Daddy used a pumpkin Ryan got several weeks ago at a different pumpkin patch to make a pirate pumpkin.

the pumpkin was a little too small for all the pieces though...

this is a good place for the mustache...

Mommy, Ryan and Nana made Halloween cookies. Ryan was very hesitant and almost afraid of the icing until Mommy put a little of it on his lips. Then suddenly the icing was not scary but rather "tasty" and Ryan could not get enough!

Adding chocolate chips to his cookie..

getting a taste of cookie dough..

this is what happens when the cookie dough is taken away....

but after 15 minutes, this comes out ready to eat...

mmmm...

Trick or Treat...

Ryan had so much fun trick or treating! He loved seeing all of the kids in their costumes, visiting with our neighbors and handing out candy to the trick or treaters that came to our house. Owen stayed with Nana and Papa and visited with all of our neighbors that came by to meet him. Ryan loved running up and down the street. He would tell each person that gave him a "treat" thank you, it was just too sweet! Jeff and I had so much fun with Ryan on his first trick or treat adventure! Next year he will be a pro!

My little pumpkin...

Checking out the loot.

Trying a lollipop...

While Ryan ran all around the house, Owen napped peacefully in his swing.
