This is always such an exciting day for our kids. They get to pick anything they want to carve into their pumpkins. I was a little worried the firetruck ladder would be too hard, but Brad pulled through as you will see below.
Pumpkin scraps for the chickens!
Hot apple cider while we carve. What's the deal with the hand in the pocket...quite funny!
Careful carving that fire ladder!
Fire truck, chicken and a cat face.

Brenden peeking down into his pumpkin tonight. When we came back from trick or treating they were all still lit. I think we are the only people with kids in our hood. We went down our short block and then went to my parents house up the road.
Presenting.....St. Michael, Our Lady of Guadalupe and Juan Diego
Both pictures of Brenden made me laugh, so I had to post both.
Brenden had me cracking up with his serious countenance. When he saw his wings (he didn't know I had them, he said he was going to fly up high).
Our Lady of Guadalupe and St. Juan Diego
The back of Mary's starry mantle and St. Michael's wings.
Roses of Castile!
Grandpa left a trail of evidence behind. Apparently when we came back to my parents house, there were M&M's wrappers in a trashcan. Knox discovered them and told Grandma that Grandpa Fisher ate all the candy! LOL! You should have seen Grandpa's face!
My mom's neighbors have a daughter who my kids love to see. We were lucky to walk with their group. It was a lot of fun.
My parents have the coolest neighbors! lol They like to sit out front with a banjo and play hillbilly music for everyone.
St. Michael got a bit tired.. not sure how, I thought he was going to fly.
Finally done for the night.
I have Matt Maher's song stuck in my head tonight. Here's our Family's Litany, sing the tune in your head...
