Happy Halloween!

As tradition, we of course carved our pumpkins for Halloween. This year we tried to not go as extreme as we usually do. Dave carved the Superman pumpkin, Jackson wanted a scary Jack-o-lantern for his little pumpkin, and I did Dora the Explorer, since Jackson just loves watching it. This year Jackson was a football player and Megan was a cute little ladybug. We had a fun Halloween going trick or treating and to our friends house for a Halloween party.

Jackson always has to play in the leaves whenever he sees a big pile of them. When I went visiting teaching, him and his friend Savanna had a blast playing in them. He couldn't help but notice that Megan needed to play too. Jackson never wants to leave her out of the fun.




Our Ward Halloween Party



I didn't know being a ladybug was such a common thing for a little girl. It was funny there were two other little girls that were a ladybug other than Megan. We couldn't resist taking a picture of them all together.



Daves friend came to the ward Halloween party. Dave dressed up as Abraham Lincoln and I dressed up as a deviled egg, ha..ha..! It was a lot of fun with the dinner and trunk or treating they had. The ward parties are always a lot of fun to go to, they always do a great job with them.



I felt ambitious and made a Halloween cake for the Ward Party. It was fun, but a lot of work.



Jacksons Preschool Halloween Party



It's been a lot of fun the past few months doing preschool with Jackson and a few of his friends. We will do a lesson everyday with a letter, number and theme. This past week for Halloween, I taught, we did a lot of fun Halloween crafts and treats. One of the days I had a little Halloween party for them and played a few fun games like a cake walk, but with cupcakes, and eat a donut off a string. They had fun dressing up in their costumes. Jackson has had a lot of fun with preschool, it seems already, and has done so much better going to other peoples houses to play without having a hard time when I leave. It has made me sad to see him break out of his shell, now I have to remind him to give me a kiss, a hug, and say bye. He use to cry, hold onto me, and not want me to leave. But now he does wonderful. So that's been very nice to get over.
