| Aye, mateys! It was a rowdy crew at the ECFE Halloween party this year!! |

| Although it looks like the boys are carving pumpkins here, I think I was lucky in capturing on film the 30 seconds that they actually participated. Jonas would NOT touch the pumpkin innards. And, of course, what older brother will not do, younger brother will not do, either. And then Daddy came home with a dead pheasant...apparently, doing whatever one does to a dead pheasant in the garage was WAY more interesting than carving pumpkins with Mom. |

| FINALLY! The long awaited Trick-or-Treating on Halloween! Hopefully, it was everything Miles had imagined - he has been talking about it for about a month and a half. Most funny moment - when a sweet woman probably well into her 80's asked Miles if he was Roy Rogers! |
