Halloween

Pistorius family on Halloween.
We went to our church's Halloween party which actually I was completely in charge of being the ward activities chairperson! This is David, Drew, me and Colleen (David's mom).
Drew would not dress up this year so at least he's in orange!


David and Kinsey with Buzz Lightyear at the party - Drew is in the corner very upset with the idea of this character. He didn't like Elmo from last year either!

Drew is going from door to door trick or treating. Once, he got his first piece of candy, he wasn't letting go. Notice it is still in his left hand as he is watching people put more candy in his bucket.

The youth in our ward put on various carnival games for the kids. Drew had to dig through scraps and bits of paper for this candy he found.

Drew reaching in the bowl for candy - he got this down very quickly!

Drew laughing at something David is doing


Drew with his friends, Bryan and Caitie on Halloween morning. Caitlyn is dressed up as the monkey Drew was supposed to be for Halloween, but he refused to wear a costume at all. He wouldn't even be Thomas the train or Elmo - it just wasn't going to happen.

Carving our pumpkin

Pistorius family with our pumpkin after we carved it.
David chose the design - headless horseman but with a pumpkin head? Looked cool though.

Colleen or "Mimi"as Drew calls her (he can't say Grandma so we had to improvise) and Drew scooping the insides out of the pumpkin and into the bag.

David starting us off by getting the top off of the pumpkin - it was a little tough because our pumpkin had no stem! But that is what you get when you decide to buy a pumpkin two days before Halloween!
