Halloweeining-Part II

As promised, here is a post about the rest of our Halloweening activities!


We had a ward trunk-or-treat party, and we dressed up as Tetris blocks! Ben was the brains & the engineering behind the design! He put those boxes together so expertly! It was very impressive! I was mostly in charge of painting and designing and making the game boy (which you can see behind us on the car).

Also, in appropriate Halloween fashion, we got a pumpkin from a pumpkin patch and tried to carve it. Unfortunately, we happened to buy a pumpkin with the THICKEST SKIN I have EVER seen on a gourd! We couldn't cut it with any knife, so we ended up having to use a hammer and nails to poke holes through it and then use them as guides for our knives! Sheesh!


But, after about two hours of blood, sweat, and tears, we managed to get a tiny little face out of our pumpkin.


In addition to a pumpkin, we also decorated the house with a door hanging, window decals, and graves! WE LOVE HALLOWEEN!!!!
