Our Halloween started the weekend before at the Pumpkin Patch! We went last year in Colorado and got to check out a place here in Utah. I had actually been there back when I was single, with a bunch of friends. It was way different now--they had tons more activities and fun things for little kids. We went on a hayride, played on these wooden playground things (they had big wooden trains, boats, firetrucks), played in a tractor, and picked out pumpkins!

We LOVE slides!

For Family Home Evening we painted our pumpkins and made quite a mess!
Kendal was all over it--she dug in right away.
For some reason they thought the paint that I put on the pumpkins should be put on their hands and then wiped onto their bellies...
Needless to say, I think we may be doing more fingerpainting around here--it was a hit!
On Halloween we went to Center Street in Provo and trick-or-treated at the local businesses. The girls were dressed up as skeletons, I even made some bone clips for their hair. We didn't get too creative--comfy and warm was the way to go. I thought going to Center St. would be perfect for the girls since they don't really understand the whole trick-or-treat concept yet, but it wasn't as fun as I anticipated. The girls looked adorable and we got a few pieces of candy, so it all worked out :)
We went our for dinner at this fabulous new place on Center Street--seriously had the best burger ever there.
Isn't my husband handsome?
The girls enjoyed their first pieces of real candy and we had lots of fun. A good Halloween indeed.
