Halloween, or the Thursday before finals?

Carter loved helping Daddy carve the Jack-o-lantern.

Carter really wanted to blow the candle out.
Today at church he was singing Happy Birthday to himself.
Apparently he really wants to be three.

Boo-berry pancakes.....ba-dum-dum.
After eating this festive holiday breakfast, Craig asked Paige if we had any plans that evening.  Paige chuckled, thinking "surely he is being sarcastic."  When she looked up and saw that he was sincerely waiting for a response, she said, "Are you serious?"  After seeing Craig's stupor, she explained, "it's Halloween.  Why do you think I made these ghost pancakes?"
Craig's defense for this lapse in brain activity is as follows:
"It's not Halloween, it's the Thursday before finals."

Samwise the Brave journeying through Cirith Ungol.

Trick or Treat!

"I give you the light of Earendil, our most beloved star. May it be a light for you in dark places, when all other lights go out."

After trick or treating we had hot chocolate, or as Carter calls it "Chocolate Water."

Carter chipped his front tooth at the playground.

Little climber.

"Who are you looking for?  Carter?  Haven't seen him."

A Monkey with his monkey.

Carter decided this was a good place to take a nap.
