Then we got carving!
We sure love the Johnsons!
Next year, we will head to Cleveland
to keep this terrific tradition alive!
On Saturday we carved our other pumpkin
since we ran out of time on Friday.
The boys cut the top off and scooped out all of the guts.
And then let me carve it. I hadn't carved a pumpkin in a while.
It was so fun. I made the big, bright, smiley one.
I love the tooth on Lance's pumpkin from the previous night.

DANVILLE HALLOWEEN PARADE
Thursday October 25, 2012
Downtown Danville
We were super lucky to sit by a sweet family
Reuben was entranced by his first parade.
At first Sawyer wouldn't move an inch away from my lap,
but by the end of the parade he would stand by the curb
and hold his bag out as far as he could.
We were super lucky to sit by a sweet family
who let us squeeze in by them and even let me sit in an extra chair
that they had so that Sawyer could get close to the action.
In addition, they made sure that their kids saved
some candy for Sawyer to pick up.

THE PUMPKIN PALOOZA
Saturday October 27, 2012
Downtown Danville
This event had so many FREE, fun things to do!
They had dressed-up ducks and donkeys to pet and feed.
They had carved pumpkins you could view.
They had pumpkins kids could paint.
(I love his concentration face!)
They had games where you could throw pumpkins.
Bean bag pumpkins...
...and real pumpkins.
Lance was excited to do that one!
You can see his pumpkin flying high in the sky.
Then Sawyer tried it.
But was very disappointed (AKA-Broke into tears)
that his pumpkin didn't go as far as Daddy's did.
But luckily they had pumpkin bowling
for the kiddos to distract him.
He was much better at the bowling!
And much happier!
It was a perfectly pumpkiny palooza!
TRUNK OR TREAT
Saturday October 29, 2012
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
Two cute little Engineers
driving Thomas and Percy.
After some yummy chili and desserts,
we headed out to the parking lot.
Sawyer's buddy Chandler showing him his candy!
Playing in the leaves!
TRICK OR TREAT
Wednesday October 31, 2012
Heading out on All Hallow's Eve.
Somebody was tired.
We just went to see family this year on Halloween,
but between the parade, trunk or treat, and trick or treat,
I'd say we have more than enough treats to get us to Easter!
Reuben's First Halloween!
Happy Halloween!
From my two favorite Engineers!
