Halloween!

We carved pumpkins on Sunday after lunch.  Benjamin was very excited.  VERY excited.  Andrew was somewhat excited/clueless.  He took a nap while we finished up.  But next year, he is going to be really excited, too, I bet.

B drew the face, I carved it and then he drew all over the pumpkin.  It was a Benjamin original to the MAX!

On Halloween, our church had a pretty big event called Light Up The Night -- complete with a little kid worship concert and A TON of candy.  I think this was the perfect thing for my kiddos!  Andrew and I danced and sang away while Patrick and Benjamin contently sat still and watched.  I love how different we all are!

When we got home, Patrick put Andrew to bed and B and I walked down our street for a little old school trick or treating.  

He loved it. 

Obviously.

Patrick, B and I were sitting on the kitchen floor checking out the loot and Benjamin looked at me and said, "MOM! I love Halloween!!!" 

Benjamin wanted to be Yoda.  He does not know that he is a regular jedi.
Praise God he has no clue about Star Wars!

I made this up about an hour before we left!

Sweet tiger.

This tiger loves blankies.

both boys!

Happy daddy with a tired tiger.
