Trick or Treat!!

Luke is really starting to understand what holidays are all about this year, and we had a great time getting ready for Halloween! Earlier this week, Luke painted one of our big pumpkins to get it ready for carving on Halloween:

Once everything was painted, it was time to get the pumpkins carved and ready for the big night!

Luke won over the crowds in his puppy dog costume and got lots of candy and treats from the neighborhood! He had a great time knocking on all the doors, and we finally did get him to say "Trick or Treat" a couple of times! I'm sure that by next year he'll be a Halloween pro!
