A Smidgen of Our Halloween

1) Dinner-in-a-pumpkin. check.
2) Carve jack-o-lanterns and toast seeds. check.
3) Trunk-or-Treat at church. check.
4)... and yes, we will be taking our kids out tonight. (Hey, we don't watch the Super Bowl on Sunday, or the World Series for that matter... what?)

Every year the church has a Trunk-or-Treat in the stake center parking lot where families come and pass candy out of their spookily decorated trunks. This usually falls on the same night as Halloween, in which case we spend only a short time there before venturing on to other neighborhoods for trick-or-treating. However, since the Trunk-or-Treat was on a Friday night this year, we decided to stay and pass out candy. It was So. Much. Fun. Forrest and I decided we will be doing this every year from now on until we are grandparents. : )

  2. We had a lot of fun at the trunk or treat too. It was the first one we have gone to at the church.

  3. Sounds like you had a fun Halloween weekend! Did Ashlee make Rachel's hat in her pictures? So cute! I like the all the fun costumes, and one day I'll have to try that dinner in a pumpkin. I think you made it once and it was delicious, but that one looks different. Maybe it is a different "dinner" in a pumpkin:-))

  4. Yes, Ashlee made Rachel's hat and her own broomstick as well. I have been making the same dinner-in-a-pumpkin recipe for about 6 years. I'll have to give you the recipe... it's yummy!
