Halloween

We had a fun halloween this year. The kids were very excited to wear their costumes. Remember that pumpkin patch field trip? We ended up with 6 pumpkins from that. Yep. I carved them all. Well okay, not all of them. The 6th one got hollowed out but is still sitting outside waiting to be carved. It probably won't. :-(




Being that we live in New Mexico I felt it appropriate to do a Roswell Alien Jack O' Lantern.



A happy ghost.



A cyclops.


This is Sy's pumpkin. She's pushed it in the baby stroller and rolled it around the yard. Carried it around the house. When it came time to carve it she had no problem picking out the pattern she wanted on her pumpkin. A bat.



This is W's pumpkin. The day we brought it home from the pumpkin patch he painted a face on it with grandma. We carved the other side of it. He happily chose the spider pattern for his pumpkin.



Here they are in their costumes. I got a really good deal on them through disneystore.com. W had been telling everyone he was going to be Peter Pan for halloween and would tell them his sister was going to be Tinkerbell.


They absolutely loved being in their costumes.


Tink had eaten some pizza before her picture was taken.


Peter Pan getting ready to fly back to Neverland.


The did not want to take their costumes off when we got home that night. They wanted to put them on again the next day. I was "told" that they "will get to wear their costumes again on W'l birthday."
