Getting Ready

We spent some time yesterday evening getting ready for today. This is the first time that we have carved a pumpkin as a family. Amanda found some templates online and after much discussion with Lily we found one that we could all agree on. We ended up with a pretty silly face. Lily is looking forward to seeing it lit up and, frankly, so am I.


Today is just a big day all around because it is also Reformation Day. In the spirit of that we are going to have a Diet of Worms cake. We may sing the Reformation Polka as well since Lily certainly knows the tune. There is also a helpful explanation of all the lyrics here. We may also listen to "Here I Stand" on the way to church today.

Of course, we're also going to go Trick or Treating tonight. Noah is going to reprise his Darth Vader costume and Lily is going to be a sun princess, which will recycle her costume from the last dance recital. Noah is only going to make a lap in our cul-de-sac, but Lily and I will go farther afield in the pursuit of sugar. Hopefully the rain will hold off.
