This is not something I have been very good at doing with my kids. We have done it a few times, but it in no way has been a tradition, which is sad because the kids really enjoy it. I guess I'll try to do better in the future. I think it might help living near my family since they do seem to all do it :)
Dallin did a tri-force, Grace did the logo for a book she is writing called Survivors. Isaac worked hard on his own to make a nice jack-o-lantern. Anna made a face and on the back she did a lightning bolt. By the end of the night she carved more in the sides and painted the whole thing. Wish I would have taken a picture of them all when we put them on our front steps....Maybe next time!
Henry was so proud of his that he did with no help. Noah took quite a while trying to figure out what to do, so he didn't quite finish. He was working on a Captain America shield. I tried to do a spiderweb and spider and painted it with some glow in the dark paint...which didn't really work too well.
My brother Greg always does something amazing. This year he did Wolverine. So cool! Everyone had some nice carvings I wish I would've taken pictures of Blythe's minion, Holden's minion, Maren's minon, my mom's shark, Marcy's Jack Skelington, Julianne's Minnie Mouse, Shannon's Mexican death mask, Kenzie's Spongebob (at least I think that's what she did).
