Boo!

Carving is so cool.
This is the first Halloween that Nico comprehends the jist of the holiday. He is really into the "boo" right now. At school we've made construction paper pumpkins and black cats, which are now proudly displayed in our window at home. We recently carved his first pumpkin (my first in over 15 years!) He helped me scoop the seeds and had a blast. Later we roasted the seeds with olive oil, salt and rosemary and a dash of cinnamon. The house smelled amazing! We bought him O.R. scrubs for his costume. I figured they are the least intrusive. Nico gets so claustrophobic, so I'm hoping he won't even notice this get up. The days of the adorable baby skunk costume are over. We have a few events lined up for Halloween: a pre-party at Fremont's house, a parade at the rec center, and a halloween party with friends. The Meza social schedule is suddenly of a very different nature. Scary!
Washed seeds awaiting seasoning.
