Lyla's first Halloween!! So exciting! No need for much commentary. Here's the run down:5:00 pm - Dinner with the neighbors
6:00 pm - Trick or treating (we went to a total of three houses, not really that exciting for kids under the age of two).
6:20 pm - Back home to give out candy
7:30 pm - Over-stimulation achieved! Time for bed!
Here's the pictures:

What a silly bear:
Alright Dads! Now we're talking. Trick-or-treating is great!

Look mom! I'm scary:
Grave digging!! Fun!!
We also carved pumpkins this year, though Lyla wasn't part of the process. I was feeling industrious so I tried something my mom taught us when we were kids where you carve a relief of a picture into the surface of the pumpkin. Being one of those nerdy dads who's completely wrapped around his daughter's finger, you'll never guess what i carved a picture of:
You can see the original here.
And here is it all lit up:
Happy Halloween, everyone!
