Trick of Treat 2007

This year we had two Spidermen (but not the same one of course) and Mater, the tow truck character from the movie Cars. This was Cooper's first "real" trick or treating. It took him a couple houses, but he got the hang of it. The only part he didn't grasp was that you're supposed to put your candy in your bag. He preferred to hold on to it until we got to the next house and by that time it was good, warm, and melted and he would just drop it in that person's candy bowl and pick out a fresh one.

Couple of Tough Guys

No explanation needed - just enjoy the pictures.

Carve em' up!

Now that we had the pumpkins, it was time to carve em' up.

Pumpkin Prep

Amy Jo, the three boys, and their cousin Kiersten headed out to the pumpkin patch. There were games, rides, and lots of pumpkins. The kids picked out a few good ones and then brought them home to carve.

Spencer takes a turn.

And even Amy Jo gives it a spin (with some navigating help from Kiersten)

Decisions, decisions........

Model Wannabees

Amy Jo was setting up a simple backdrop to take some pictures of some jeans she wanted to sell online. Cooper and Spencer quickly figured out that a camera was involved....and.....just like that....Amy Jo had herself some models.
