Halloween

Celebrating halloween is not customary here in Czech. This year we decided to carve out a pumpkin in keeping up with the celebration.

The weather was wonderful on halloween day.  Since times like these are quite rare this season, my family and I decided to take Michaela  out for a walk in our neighborhood.

Afterwhich, my husband and son decided to carve a pumpkin they got from friends in our neighborhood.

Jakub was goofing around while I was trying to capture his dad in action.

The pumpkin that they carved turned out well.  It was my husband’s first carved pumpkin.  I thought he did a good job.

Jakub had to take a posterity pose beside the finished product.

There was no trick or treat, but we still displayed the pumpkin outside.  We then capped off the day with a nice dinner and some quiet time with the family.
