We went to Grandma and Grandpa's to pick pumpkins! How awesome is that? Grandpa grew a bunch of pumpkins and while the goats got some of them, there were still so many. Each of the kiddos picked at least one pumpkin to bring home and now our porch is looking very festive.

We're leaning into the baby Thor look for Ira (half pony tail) and everyone is really enjoying seeing more of his face. I know one day I'm gonna have to cut his hair, but not today!

Okay, here it is! All my little Trick-or-Treaters! I'd say this year's set of costumes came together really well and overall really easily! Holly was Robin from the movie, "Wolf Walkers." Greta was Little Red Riding Hood. Maeve was Elsa (duh). E was a puppy and Ira was a tiger. Overall, I'd say Halloween this year was a success! E really caught onto the idea that crinkly packages contain tasty treats.

Halloween 2020

I guess we're at that phase where not everyone is home (or awake) for the family activity. This year only Maeve and Holly carved pumpkins. Maeve drew out her design on a piece of paper and then I did my best to replicate it on the pumpkin. Maeve and I also did a couple of crafts. I love the expressions she drew on her pumpkin. I told her I wanted to do some crafts with her one afternoon and her response was, "I already did a craft at preschool." I did so many crafts with Holly and Greta. What they say is true, every child is born into a different family. I'm glad I carved out some time to do a couple little crafts.

The babies were puppies for Halloween (except for when Ira was a tiger) and I took photos ahead of time. Greta and her friend helped me dress the boys and they thought it was so fun and cute. Ha! These two kind of are puppies in real life. E crawls right over Ira all the time and Ira has begun worming his way up to E and getting into his business. These costumes belong to E's Grandma and they're pretty cute. These two brothers are pure joy!

Ira had 2 costumes this year, one of which was this tiger costume. E wore it for his first Halloween, so obviously, I just had to put Ira in it. It was pretty funny to watch him wrestle with the hood. His cheeks look so round and yummy!
