This year is just flying by so fast. Somehow we just passed my favorite holiday, Halloween. I still love this holiday even though it looks much different in your 40s.
We did not go to one of the farms to do the fall festivities, but we did purchase a couple of pumpkins from a parking lot decked out like it was a pumpkin patch.
Andy and Max carved a pumpkin that was hand-drawn by yours truly. Max wanted to do a Boxer face on his pumpkin so I did my best at the hand-drawn portion while they cut, scooped and carved.
I also did a painted pumpkin for my firm's Halloween contest. We decided on a popcorn bucket that I painted and Max glued all the popcorn on. I told him if he participates and I win anything he can have it. Well, we got third place so he got the $25 Target gift card which he already spent on a new cookbook that he's been wanting. It's from a chef that he's been following on YouTube for a while. I was pretty impressed with this cookbook as there are a lot of good recipes and I am excited for Max to make us many meals from it.
For Halloween, we went trick-or-treating in our neighborhood with a couple of Max's good friends. Max dressed up as the Halloween version of Fish Stick, a character from Fortnite. Our neighborhood was very busy with a lot of kids. Max's friend's older brother put on a haunted house that was super cool. I thought it was cool, but it caused Max to sleep in our bed that night because it was scary.
Another Halloween has come and gone and we are now on the fast track to New Year's.
