Preview Party...

For the past couple of years, Cole has tested his lighting and effects the night before Halloween, and we've invited friends and family over to enjoy it with us.  This year, we decided increase the scale...

We've been disappointed the last few years that there was no ward halloween party planned.  We weren't the only ones, and with the help of a good friend and her family, we decided we would have a party.  Cole needed help carving his 60 pumpkins, and we always do the lighting preview, so we thought it was perfect timing. 

If you missed it, you missed out...we had a great time!!!!

All the neighborhood kids enjoyed helping us carve pumpkins...

We enjoyed hot dogs, chili, cupcakes, and donuts...

***side note: our house is considered one of the scariest in the neighborhood.  Some of the kids never want to come, and their parents force them.  Cole figured that if they saw it in the daylight, and could look for "their" pumpkin during trick or treating, they might not be quite as scared...we'll see how that plays out :)***

Then, the lighting...

I love how your house turns out every year! I love all the pumpkins, and the party was a really great idea.
