Halloween

This weekend we were off to my parent’s house – since we won’t be getting together for Thanksgiving this year, we all got together for Halloween instead. Friday night involved some serious pumpkin carving – look at these masterpieces!


Saturday morning was bright and early golfing – I went out with my mom for 9 holes while the guys (Brad, Ryan and my dad) did 18 on another course. This was the first time that I’ve ever actually kept score. Let’s just say it was not so pretty. Fortunately, my mom and I decided that we would only count to 10, so the scorecards didn’t get toooo insane ;)

Then Saturday night, Brad and I headed out to “Hulaween” – the annual Halloween concert of String Cheese Incident, another of our favorite bands. It was a great show with lots of interesting costumes from the audience (and the band!) and Brad was able to bring in a camera again with a photo pass…



Finally, Sunday we went to Kiera and Ryan’s in Richmond to see the kids get dressed up for Halloween. I, of course, went crazy taking photos of the kiddies! First, some quality time between the grandparents and grandkids …



Then Natalie and Blake donned their Halloween costumes. They were dressed as Max and Ruby (a kid’s cartoon – Max and Ruby are brother and sister rabbits). They were adorable!


And of course, Duke got in on the Halloween costume fun :)



When we finally did get home, we were instantly inundated by trick or treaters - apparently, we get a lot of traffic in our neighborhood! Some of that traffic might be attributed to our neighbors who give out candy for the kids and jello shots for the adults - I think that might entice some parents to walk a bit further than they otherwise might have done! ;)
