The Gaffords: Happy Halloween!!

Happy Halloween everyone! We had a great Halloween this year. Tyler was really excited about everything and loved getting to trick-or-treat.

The Thursday before Halloween, Tyler's school had a Halloween parade (which was so cute). All the kids were dressed in their costumes & they paraded into the gym. Then after the parade they were able to go trick-or-treating to the different classrooms. On Halloween Tyler, Ryan and I went up to Galyn's office for trick-or-treating. Tyler liked scaring everyone with his dinosaur costume ... ROAR ... and grabbing handfuls of candy out of candy bowls.

We also carved our first family pumpkin. Tyler thought it was cool, until he had to grab out the seeds ... then he wasn't too sure about it. He let Daddy clean the pumpkin out, but Tyler told us what shape eyes & nose he wanted & how many teeth the jack-o-lantern should have. He really liked the finished jack-o-lantern all lit up.

Trick-or-Treating was a lot of fun ... Tyler was very excited to see his neighborhood friends (Sarah & Izzy). He loved getting to go around to the different houses. When we were done going around the neighborhood we came back home to hand out candy. Tyler had as much fun with this as he did with the actual trick-or-treating. We sat on the front porch and when Tyler would see kids coming up to the house he would yell, "Come and get your candy people" and when they got to the porch he would hand them some candy and tell them, "here are your candy bars". It was really funny to watch him.
