Our First Halloween

On Saturday, Seth and I had our Fall/Halloween celebration. In the afternoon, we carved pumpkins (so they would be ready for the trick-or-treaters in the evening). We have concluded that these are the best pumpkins either of us has ever made.

Seth carved Jack Skellington's head.

I used one of the patterns in the pumpkin carving kit to craft an exquisite spider on a web.

After the pumpkins were carved and photographed for posterity, I made a delicious Fall dinner: brown sugar ham and mashed potatoes.

Dinner was followed by pumpkin pie and Pillsbury sugar cookies with black cats in the center. Yum! And we watched the classic "Murder by Death."

All in all, a successful Halloween eve!

Also, I dyed my hair a shockingly vibrant red. Woot!
