Costumes and Pumkins, Oh my!

Both boys had fun Fall parties at school this year where they got to show off their favorite costumes.   Caleb was Jengo Fett from Star Wars and Seth was a Titans football player. Caleb's school had a costume parade where all of the kindergarteners paraded down the hall for the 1st and 2nd graders and the parents.  It was a lot of fun to watch the kiddos strut around to the tune of Monster Mash.  Then they got to head back to their class for a little pumpkin face creating and cupcake eating.

Seth's class had a fun party, too.  He got to go around to the different classrooms and collect LOTS of candy.  He was definitely a happy camper!

Here he is giving his best "intimidation glare".

Believe it or not, this year was the first time I have ever carved a pumpkin.  We had a pumpkin carving party at our small group that was a lot of fun!  And the pumpkin carving (which I did the bulk of for the little Workmans) was not nearly as difficult or disgusting as I thought it would be.

Eric and the boys had their own little pumpkin carving party one night while I was at work.  I think it was probably Eric's first time carving a pumpkin, too.  Just a guess. 

They sure had a good time, even though that big pumpkin never quite got completely carved.
