Don't mind me, I'm still just trying to catch up, and I am very obviously behind! But as we are using this as a digital scrapbook, I still like to document all of the going ons, even if I am a little late in doing so. :)
Anyway, after coming home from the weddings, it was time for Halloween! About a week before Halloween, we decided to carve a pumpkin. It was actually the first time that Cody and I carved a pumpkin without any other family members, so we kind of let our goofiness take over. :)

| The beginning of the carving process. Still not sure what kind of pumpkin we should carve... |
 |
| Decision made: Scared Pumpkin! |
 |
| Finished, with the lit candle. |

As it was Hunter's first Halloween, it just seemed natural for him to be Batman, right? :) I didn't want a cutesy baby Batman costume, so I searched for kind of a "grown-up" version. I then decided to make it a family event and found a Joker shirt for Cody to wear, and I was Harley Quinn, which in the comics is The Joker's girlfriend. We even had Vega in a bow tie as she was Alfred.

We had some friends come to our neighborhood and took the kids to just a few houses so we could all show off our costumes. I think that the adults had more fun than the kids, tho! :) I have been getting lots more ideas for next Halloween...
As we all know, Thanksgiving follows Halloween. :) And we decided to do a "misfits" Thanksgiving, which basically meant that we invited anyone over who didn't have family or another place to go. We ended up having quite an awesome group of people. :)

| Hunter's favorite part about Thanksgiving, dessert! |
It was such a fun time celebrating our thanks with our "misfit" family. :) In fact, we had such an amazing time and so much leftover wine, that we ended up inviting everyone back over that Saturday for wine and pizza. :) Such a great and fun weekend!
