The gateway to the holiday season has come and gone, so here are some of our pictures.

During pumpkin carving, Crystal made gourmet (and messy) caramel apples to get us in the spirit.  The kids also got an impromptu fireworks show off of our patio roof.  Someone was putting on a show north of us.  No pics of the fireworks, though.

Speaking of pumpkins, carving cool pumpkins is becoming our thing, so here are the notables this year.  For last years, check out this post on my main blog.  Enjoy the Jack-O-Lanterns from the Williams’ this year.

Trey's ASU Pumpkin.  Go Devils! Merek's Dragon Pumpkin

First up for the pumpkin fashion show is Trey’s Sun Devil homage of Sparky + the ASU logo (two for one!)

Next up is Merek’s dragon.  Fierce looking, for sure.

Cayman's Werewolf Pumpkin  

Finally, we have Cayman’s Werewolf.  Scary…very scary.
