I don't know why I love Halloween so much, I guess it is just nice to have a reason to celebrate. We have been trying to stretch out our celebration as long as possible, mostly I just love dressing Logan up in his costume and watching him run around as a little dragon! {Thanks to our friends Shelby and Sonia!} He was able to dress-up over the weekend for his cousin Katelyn's 1st birthday and for the ward Halloween party, and a little carnival they had at Josh's work for children of faculty and students. Every time I just smile, because I think he is so darn cute.
On Monday we went to a pumpkin patch, a first for all three of us. We picked out our very own pumpkin, or 4 to be exact, because it was the last day and they were only $1 a piece regardless of the size! We went a little late, so when we got there it was getting pretty dark, still fun, just hard for the pictures, but Logan lately has been making picture taking a real challenge anyway. It is practically impossible to catch him actually smiling looking in the camera. He loves to see all the people and what is going on.
Of course we wanted Logan to help carve the pumpkins and clean out the guts. I thought he would love it, but when I started taking out the seeds he came over and touched it and whined, "Yucky!" He did like when we put in the candles and turned off all the lights to look at them. Every time we go outside he has to stop at the pumpkins on the porch to touch them, look at them and say, "Pumpkins!"
