Halloween was so fun this year! Caden really got into it this year and loved everything about the holiday and the preparations - ok, he loved everything except the masks.
To get ready, we decided that our house needed a little Halloweeny makeover, so we added a few decorations
We had some cool spider webs hanging all over our front porch too. I can't believe I didn't get a picture of those!
Caden also loved raking the leaves, throwing them, and then jumping in them
The weekend before Halloween we hosted a pumpkin carving party and chili dump for our neighbors, family, and nearby friends. Everyone brought a pumpkin, a quart of chili, and a topping. We mixed all the chili together and it was AWESOME!
It was a little chilly, so we also had a hot chocolate bar - complete with marshmallows, whipped cream, peppermints, and lots of other toppings.
Everyone loved carving their pumpkins (or painting them if they were too little to be trusted with sharp carving instruments)
It was a huge success and so much fun. We've already got it on the calendar for next year!
