Candy & Pumpkins

Last Saturday we spent much of the day out and about. Jed has been wanting to take Lucas to Chucky Cheese for awhile. Lucas was so excited about all the games, until he spotted the life size mouse singing Happy Birthday and dancing. He then proceeded to "freak out"! We had to convince him that Chucky wouldn't come get him. I dragged him...literally...over to the games so that he could see how much fun they were (we had already bought the tokens and weren't about to leave before using them)! He ended up having lots of fun and only peeked over his shoulder a few times to make sure the mouse wasn't in sight!

By the time we got home, it was time for the ward trunk or treat. Can I just say how much I love this concept! I may be biased, but the giraffe and caterpillar were pretty darn cute! Here's a couple of pictures. Unfortunately we didn't get home with any good candy...Lucas only picks out tootsie rolls and sucker! I'm hoping to take them to Tawnya's trunk or treat on Halloween.













Later that night Tawnya & Landon came over for dinner and to carve pumpkins. The pumpkins turned out so good. Thank goodness for Landon...our car started sounding horrible during the day and he was able to fix it for us. We were glad he could fix it since I was heading up to my mom's on Sunday afternoon. We then played monopoly with the new credit card system. We really like it...it seems to go faster.
















I told him to put his face down by the pumpkin so we could take a picture...this is what we got!

Are you sure that Jed just didn't want to go to Chuckee Cheese, kids or not? I know I do.
