She really didn't manage to get much out with her spoon, but she tried really hard, and had a good time. She also tried to "eat" the pumpkin. I don't know how good it tasted, mommy didn't let her get very far with it.:) Here we are with our finished creations.
Yesterday was our wards "Trunk or Treat". It is a pretty big deal in our ward and more people than actually come to church each week show up. I was released from the Relief Society Presidency on Sunday and was then called to the Activities committee, so I was thrown in to the calling pretty quick. OH boy I was a micro-managing mess. I always want everything to be perfect, without any kinks, but I really need to learn how to chill out! Luckily I am just a helper bee and I'm not the person who is really in charge. It should be a fun calling if I can learn how to not stress myself out over stupid things. Anyway, Mike was wonderful and watched Emma the whole night so I could help out. I think everyone had a great time. Emma was really "clingy" last night and so it was hard to get her to smile for any of these pictures. We were going to dress her up as a princess, but her favorite little friend Hayley(2) was dressing up as a BYU cheerleader, and so we decided it would be funny to dress Emma in her University of Utah cheerleading outfit that we have. (I was personally rooting for BYU, but don't tell Emma's dad that.):)
It will be interesting to see if we will actually get "trick or treaters" this year now that we live in a house. We have always had candy, and never a tricker or a treater. Gotta love the fall.

I love your pumpkins. We haven't even bought a pumpkin yet. I think Emma is adorable as a Utah cheerleader. She is quite the cutie. I can't wait for Emma and Annadele to get together again and play.
Ok so I think that Emma must be the cuttiest cheer leader ever! Go Utes!
I'm glad your trunk or treat was a success. I like the idea of doing it on a diffrent day. When I was inactive I remmber always feeling a little left out that they held trunk or treat and then did'nt invite the nieghborhood. They always had it right on Halloween. So that left no one home for my girls to trick or treat to.
Love your pumkins!
First of all, gotta love Emma pig tails and her stylish leopard print pants;).
I think it was so funny to see Emma next her her friend, Is Emma that short or was her friend that tall? Maybe her friend is almost a year older?
Whatever, the cheerleaders were both darling:)!
1. I love your pumpkins...wow, Mike is good at them.
2. I love Emma's pigtails.
3. Since when are you fans of the U? Hmm, just wondering. :)
Awesome pumpkins. I love the picket fence/teeth on Mike's haunted house carving. I didn't know that carving pumpkins was your favorite thing - cute.
I love Emma in that outfit. Look at her cute little legs poking out - little girls are the cutest. We have a lot of sill BYU vs Utah rivalry stuff going on in our ward/neighborhood. It's kind of annoying, actually. Can't we all just get along? ;)
I bet you'll have lots of trick or treaters now that you're in a neighborhood. Is your town doing trick or treating tonight or on Sunday?
Mike's pumpkin is really neat! He's smart and creative. Emma reminded me of how fun it is to carve pumpkins with toddlers. They are so excited about what's inside.
Oh the fun of Halloween. Loved the pumpkins. Congrats on the new calling. But oh to through you in there just before an activity. That can be stressful. I always appreciate all the hard work the activity commity puts into the activities. So is this more stressful than Relief Society presidency? I would think it would be the other way around.
