Pumpkins Roasting On Candle Fire



Halloween has come and gone. For the week of this most celebrated pagan holiday we took off school to clean the house and decorate. A lot of progress was made and loads of trash was put out on the side walk. There were plenty of festivities celebrating Halloween. On Wednesday the kids enjoyed the Trunk or Treat that our ward hold every year. On Thursday everyone cut their pumpkins. This years collection of Jack O'Lanterns were especially good (my personal opinion is that Abe takes the prize for coolest though☺). We lit all of the pumpkins and in no time at all the walk up to our door was filled with the scent of burning pumpkin flesh. It was very seasonal. The annual Muldowney household party was very small but we all had a good time. Abby wasn't feeling well so Dad and Doug took Bekah, John, and Abe out to go Trick or Treating while Lizzy and Mom stayed behind with the sick girl. Doug and the boys then went into Wayne to get more goodies and Dad took Bekah home for our meal of meatball sandwiches. Although they were completely un-traditional, the sandwiches were quite delicious. We watched Frankenstein and then ended the party early because I had SATs the next morning.

Happy really really really be-lated Halloween!

Great pumpkins. Shane's pumpkin was mean this year and mine was sad so the kids said that the Daddy pumpkin was being mean to the Mommy pumpkin. That made me laugh. Thanks for finally updating. I miss you guys so much.

Johnny's costume is hilarious. I'm sorry I missed the party this year. It sounds like it was fun. And Lizzie, don't ever die your hair blonde :)
