Halloween

A first for the Ray family, trick-or-treating. This was the first year that Luke would wear a costume or go trick-or-treating. He acted like an old pro going from house to house. He and Isabella would say "Thank you and Happy Halloween" after they got the candy. It was so cute. Matthias WOULD NOT wear a costume so he was the little tag-along who ended up with two handfuls of candy anyways. Here is some of the fun.

Our bride. Ready to go!!

Luke as Thomas the train. He was SO eager!! What a change from last year! : )

As you can see it's still pretty light outside. They were SO eager. We were the first ones at everyone's house!

Isabella would lead the way and the boys were close behind, especially the tag-along!

Our three Halloween treats!!

After an hour, it was time to go home. The two were sad to go home!

Dress Up

On Fridays we have "treasure" day which is a trip to the dollar store to pick out something for treasure. They earn stickers throughout the week and if everyone has all their stickers they get to get treasure. This weeks treasure was a pirate costume and pink hair. Aren't they cute!

Pumpkin Patch

In true Ray fashion we waited until the last possible moment to go pick out our pumpkin. We pass by this patch twice a week when the boys go to KDO, so since the first week in October I've heard "Mom, we need to get our pumpkin!" Ok, so we've been pretty busy this month and we finally got to the pumpkin patch the day before Halloween. : ) The kids had a great time as always.

On our way to the patch. The kids love to hold hands!

Luke was rolling the pumpkins with his back end. : )

Daddy picked the best one we could find. It's slim pickins the day before Halloween!!
