I'm finally making the true Halloween, trick or treating post. I think we definitely got our use out of the costumes this year! Bring on the next holiday. :)

Pumpkin Party
Today we went over to Sarah's house for a Pumpkin Party before trick or treating. Braden had a blast with Tyler and some other little cuties. The kiddos got to make a picture frame, decorate their pumpkins with stickers, and even decorate cookies. Can you guess which part Braden enjoyed the most? Yep, the cookie part because he got to lick straight icing without even getting much on his cookie. :) It was a very cute party and we had a ton of fun. Thanks Sarah for having us over!!

Pumpkin Carving
On Thursday we carved our pumpkin. Braden did not want to touch the pumpkin's insides last year so we were curious if he would be into it this year. That would be a big NO! He liked watching and would use his scoop occasionally, but it was pretty much Chris doing the whole pumpkin again. :) We baked our seeds and he loved those...no surprise there since they were coated with cinnamon and sugar.

Halloween Party
Tonight we went to Chris' mom's house for their neighborhood Halloween party. It was the cutest little event! There were 7 stops during the party each at a different house. We had a pizza stop, picture stop, a pumpkin egg hunt, pumpkin painting, a game stop, a bouncer and treats stop, an outdoor movie, and finally a "spooky" walk to the shelter house for treat bags. It was a really cute event and Braden enjoyed all of the stops, especially the ones that involved getting candy. Thanks Gma Cindy and Pop for inviting us!

Trick or treating at Silver Creek
We sure are having some Halloween fun this year! On Friday night we went to Silver Creek High School for their "free" trick or treating event. I say free because I'm pretty sure everyone from the entire New Albany area was there due to the "free" part in the advertisement. It was one crowded place but they gave out some major candy. There were 75 stops throughout the school to fill your candy bucket. Braden had a good time and ran into several friends while there.

A perfect fall day!
Today was the perfect day to take some fall pictures. Michelle and Jackson came down from Indy today to play so we took the boys to a little church up the road that had a yard full of beautiful fall leaves. I had great pictures in mind but that's not quite a reality when working with two year olds. Ha! So here's what we got. :)

Getting to know each other
Braden is still loving on his brother. I keep waiting for something to change (after all, my brother colored all over my face with marker when I was 2 days old!) but so far Braden has been very gentle and loving with his little brother. He loves to lay on the floor facing Ethan and try and make him smile. It's pretty cute.
How about this buddy? Is this funny?
And a big sneeze from Ethan right in Braden's face. Ha!

Trick or treating at the zoo
Last night we went to the zoo for their annual trick or treating event. We met the Johnsens there and as usual we were entertained by Braden and Jace. This year it seemed to be the amount of falling down and getting muddy the boys somehow managed to do. :) It also felt different this year because we had Little Lexi and Ethan with us! It was a chilly night but the kiddos all managed to stay warm in their fuzzy costumes.
