Halloween 2009

Halloween is a favorite around our house. Kevin loves watching "scary" movies, I'm a fan of the pumpkin carving and pumpkin cookies, and the kids of course love the candy (big surprise, huh?). It's a tradition for us to attend our church's Halloween carnival and trunk or treat on Halloween night. This year we also had a school carnival and an amusement park Fright Night the week before, an early party on the day of, and then a very brief session of neighborhood trick or treating just after. The fun never stops. Of course, I'm not a great costume planner and we always seem to be jumping into whatever we can scrounge up thirty minutes before we go running out the door.

I suppose I should explain what we are just in case it's not obvious. Kevin and I are pirates (either that or extremely attractive biker people), Brooks is the most adorable Batman ever, James is a hairy pirate, Mae is a cross between a ballerina, princess, and wingless fairy, and Porter is a ripped Spider-Man (doesn't he wish). Oh and my mom is what she is every year, a pumpkin fairy, Heidi is a U-dub fan (can't imagine why), James and Porter's friend that came with us--along with his brother--(see first pic below) is a ninja, and the Harry Potter next to them just happens to be a innocent bystander (and cute boy from James' church class) of my blurry and obnoxious photo taking obsession. I'm pretty sure I just made everything even less obvious.

Here's some pics ...

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010
