Happy Halloween!

Luke had a fun halloween, it was his first time to go trick-or-treating and he definitely liked that! We took him first to the carnival at our church and he was great at playing the games....and he figured out pretty quickly that he got candy as a treat for playing. Then we came home and went out trick-or-treating. We went to our next door neighbors first and Luke didn't quite get it - he kept trying to go into their house, I don't think he ever really understood tonight why we would just go to someone's door and not go in! Luke actually seemed to have more fun coming back home and answering the door when people came....although he tried a few times to leave with them. Abby had a fun evening too hanging out with her grandparents (thanks mom and dad!) while we were gone, it's hard to imagine that next year she'll be running around with Luke! Here are some pictures....



This was the only picture I got of Luke with his whole costume on, he spent the majority of the evening as a half-dragon :-)



Luke was great at all the games, I was actually surprised he was patient enough to play without just trying to grab the candy!



Luke always wants to go in the library/book store at our church, which happened to be in the middle of the hallway where the games were...so he spent half of our time at the carnival in there reading books.



Here we are waiting at the door for Luke's first time to trick-or-treat!



And he is off and running with the candy!!


Luke and Daddy ready with the candy


In between kids coming to our door, Luke amused himself by kicking his pumpkin around the floor....with his dragon feet


Abby in her pumpkin attire :-)

What a cute half dragon. Maybe next year they can be a Chinese dragon and Abigail can be the head, as it seems Luke has the rear already figured out.

I love the fact that your son refused to wear all of his costume too! And Abby had the cutest little pumpkin butt!
