Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween. We had a great weekend. It was a lot of fun this year with Brody being a little older. Mark came home early from work on Friday and we went outside to carve our pumpkins. Brody was hilarious. He doesn't really like to be dirty so the whole gooey pumpkin insides were not his favorite part. We could barely get him to touch it. After a while he warmed up a little and wanted to help but he was pretty content watching mommy and daddy do all the dirty work. Then Tim and Shara came over and we made sloppy Joe's (this is a Halloween tradition from Mark's childhood) then we got Brody in his outfit. Mark took him trick or treating but only to a couple of houses. He is still too little to get the entire Halloween concept. Then we just hung out and passed out TONS of candy. We had so many trick or treaters. I love Halloween!

Really not sure about the gooey stuff.

Once he had a big spoon he was glad to help.

He also wanted to help carve but he might need to wait a few more years.

Mommy cleaning out her pumpkin.

More ickyness.

The end results.

Time for our costume.

He just loved dressing up, can't you tell.

Once we got him outside he calmed down.

He was such a cute monkey.

Daddy taking him trick or treating for the very first time.

He even held his own candy holder.

Dad and his little monkey.

Such a cutie pie.

Walking with dad.

And we ended the night with kisses from mom.
