Happy Halloween!

We had a fun filled, sunny Halloween season this year.  We went to 3 different pumpkin patches, carved pumpkins, went trick or treating and enjoyed lots of candy:)  There are a lot of photos in this post but I couldn't resist...the boys were so cute!

Julian at the Plumper Pumpkin patch with his preschool class.  We all went for a hay ride:)

Julian liked feeding the farm animals

Mommy and Julian.  I love spending one on one time with this little guy.

Here we all are in the Sauvie Island pumpkin patch corn maze.  This place was crazy busy!  I guess we should have known better than to head to a pumpkin patch on a sunny Saturday.

After the pumpkin patch we drove into the town of St. Helens.  Their little downtown square was all decorated for Halloween.

This town was sponsoring a "spooky car" contest.  There were lots of old cars all decorated for Halloween.  This was my favorite:)

Our final pumpkin patch was the Lakeview Pumpkin Patch.  Of course we had to take a ride on the train.

Julian is more than 4 pumpkins tall!

So, you take a train out to the pumpkin patch and then a boat takes you back after you pick out your pumpkins.  Once again, a beautiful sunny day!

Instead of raking the leaves in the front yard Hyrum decided to mow them up.  I had to get a picture of these two.  Whenever Hyrum is out working in the yard or mowing the grass, Julian is always 2 steps behind him, following him around.  He is such  good little helper.

The Monday before Halloween we carved our pumpkins for Family Home Evening.  This is Emerson working on his design

The final results.  Townsend, Julian and Emerson's pumpkins.  I think they all turned out really cute.

Julian with his preschool class all dressed up for Halloween.  I'm not sure why he wasn't smiling, but he is still pretty cute:)

Trick or Treat!!!!  Julian was Lightning McQueen again this year.  Townsend is Jake and Emerson is Finn from a cartoon called "Adventure Time"

Julian tired of trick or treating before the boys so Daddy took him home while I stayed out with the twins.  Julian had so much fun passing out candy to all the kids that came to our door.

And finally, the loot!  That's a lot of candy:)
