Happy Halloween!

Halloween is here! And the air is crisp and full of excitement! Luke has been on a Halloween high for two days now! Yesterday was his big celebration at school, where he go to wear his costume ALL morning to class and the day prior, we did our family pumpkin carving! I LOVE this time of year! So many fun things!

I have to keep this post short today, as I haven't a lot of time, so I'm just going to fill you in on the last few days with pictures! I will surely have more after tonight and the weekend! We'll be having a little neighborhood get together tonight here at our house, with a yummy group effort dinner of chili, cornbread and all the fixins', and then once all of our bellies are filled, it will be off to Trick or Treat! The men will hang out here, with a warm fire in the fire pit on the driveway to make sure all the other trick or treaters are well taken care of! I am so looking forward to tonight! Luke had a blast trick or treating last year, so I know this year will be even better! Ellie will join us in her Tinker Bell costume via the stroller! Hope I can keep her warm enough..it's supposed to be chilly!!

Ty and I are off this weekend to that wedding in San Diego on Saturday...our first night away from Ellie, and our first night away from our kids in TWO years! We are lucky to have Ty's mom staying with the kids and we will get to leave early tomorrow morning to have some time to relax down there before the wedding! Oh, I cannot tell you how much I am looking forward to just a little time away! A much needed break after all the busyness lately!

So....without further ado...here are this weeks pics! Happy Halloween, friends!

It almost looks like he's protecting that pumpkin from harm, doesn't it?! LOL!
