Early Halloween w/ the Ketches

Happy (early) Halloween! Our friends/neighbors the Ketches are going to be out of town tonight, so we had some Halloween fun a little early. Day before yesterday we took the three kiddos to a pumpkin patch. Although a little sparce this late in the month, they still had fun running/crawling around. Owen found some just his size.

Then last night we decided to do some early reverse trick-or-treating where we took pumpkin chocolate chip cookies that David helped me make (while Owen destroyed things in the kitchen) to some of our other neighbors--they all enjoyed seeing the kids dressed up. David was a doctor (his scrubs say his name and he carried a toy stethescope), Owen was a lion (actually David's costume from last year) and sweet little Lauren was a baby polar bear. Here they are on their porch (Owen is waving). David kept saying, "Let's go to Halloween!" as if it were a place. His mom kept saying, "David--this IS Halloween!".

This little lion can't growl, but he can wave (at everything!) and point to everything and say "dat"--which is either his name for it, or (maybe?) he's asking us what it is???

We're going to enjoy a nice long weekend--Kyle is post call today and has the weekend off! So, yea for us and Happy Halloween to you!
