I love to carve pumpkins!! I purchased a powered pumpkin saw and it makes carving pumpkins so easy and fun. Intricate designs are now easy to accomplish!!! It makes me think back to the days when our parents would hand us huge, dull knives to carve our pumpkins. I'm amazed I still have all my fingers. 
We had lots of fun on Halloween this year. Jacky didn't want to wear his Superman costume so he wore his space pajamas and the Superman cape! He was SuperJack and Maxine was Aurora from Sleeping Beauty. Juliet was a cheetah. She only dressed up for the ward trunk or treat party. She stayed home to hand out candy. Jacky did some trick or treating on our street and the
n came home to help mom. When the trick or treaters were leaving, he'd say, "Bye, see you later." I can't believe how much candy the kids received. As a kid, it took 3 neighborhoods worth of work to accumulate the amount of candy they got in a ward party and one street. No wonder kids are so fat these days.
Merril and I had fun dressing up this year as well. I was a geisha and Merril was my sumo wrestler. His inflatable suit had a little fan on the side that kept him nice and plump. It took Jacky about 15 minutes before he'd let Merril hold him or take him anywhere.
Halloween was great and we had just the right amount of candy!! I almost ran out last year and didn't want to do that again.
I can't believe that Thanksgiving will be here in a matter of weeks!! I can feel Christmas right around the corner. I miss Halloween because I have so many cute Halloween decorations but not much for Thanksgiving. Loves to all!
