Because we painted the pumpkins in the evening, and with the boys not fully clothed, I couldn't get a picture of the boys and pumpkins together. The next day, we took them outside, and remarkably, they all were willing to sit next to (or near) their pumpkin for a quick shot!

That evening Ryder helped me make "pumpkin cookies" - by adding chocolate chips to those pre-cut/designed cookies in a box. He loves fitting as many chocolate chips as he can on each cookie!
 |
| Now that Ryder has become interested in taking pictures with my camera, he tends to be more willing to smile for the camera when I am trying to get a shot of him - but, you MUST BE FAST, it only lasts for a second! |
On Halloween night, we picked up a Papa Murphy's Jack-o-lantern pizza for dinner, with our cookies for dessert. It was a fun evening at home with the boys (with the blinds closed, and porch light off!) - the same as last year!

A few nights previous, a co-worker of mine gave me a costume her son previously wore - a monster. Although we knew we wouldn't be dressing the boys up for Halloween, I thought they may still enjoy dressing up at home.
Ryder did not find it amusing - at all. After coercing him into putting it on, and letting me take a picture (without a smile), I thought it would be funny to put the pants on Jarrett, and the jacket on Harvick - they LOVED it! I don't know if either would have wanted to wear the whole set, but they both thought it was hilarious that they were wearing part of it!
