HALLOWEEN!!

Halloween is like a whole month of fun at our house!!

I confess that I do make the girls wait till after General Conference 

and thanksgiving to put up any decorations.

We started the festivities by making pumpkins for the front tree.  

Our street is pretty festive for Halloween and 

Ms. A was asking to do something outside.

So we had a pumpkin tree.

They Loved it!!

Next was a day of Halloween Cookies.

Sometimes I love living close to Target (SOMETIMES)!

I found some halloween cookie cutters for under a dollar 

and spider sprinkles for super cheap.

These Girls LOVE decorating cookies.

Mr. T just loved eating them!

 

We even convinced Daddy to come join the fun.

 

Next was Pumpkin carving.  

Uncle Darryl Brought us some organic Pumpkins at thanksgiving 

and we also bought some from the store to carve.

So we had plenty of pumpkins to carve.

Glowsticks make our pumpkins look pretty awesome!!

Here's our Minion Buddies,

 

Mr. Triangle nose,

 

Daddy's spooky ghosts and Ms. A's Heart nose pumpkin.

Then our pumpkins with their pumpkins!!

Happy Halloween!!
Well for starters we had about half a month of Halloween
as we received pumpkins early!!

And as Ms A loves to paint . .

therefore the first pumpkin got painted!!

Then we made a paper chain count down to Halloween

as Ms A announced that it was time for Halloween

now that her pumpkin was painted!!

We eventually carved the pumpkin and

even dad helped on his lunch break!!

The rest of the month was almost entirely consumed with costumes!!

First up

SHANES PIRATE COAT!!

As I cut the pieces out Ms. A loved picking up

the scraps and wrapping herself up in them!

By the end We had a little Red Pirate
complete with only 1 slipper!! (just noticed)


Here is the masterpiece all completed with
eye patch and everything!
What a handsome pirate i have!!

Later in the month (closer to Halloween)
we also took some time one day when Ms E was napping
to make a bright pink mast for Ms A!
She loved gluing the strips of pink paper on all by herself!!


Auntie Deonie took Ms A to the mall
Halloween afternoon for some grand trick or treating.
(What a wonderful Aunt I had such a headache!!)

Then we spent Halloween night at the residence
with Shane's dad and his friend!!

Ms A had a grand time running around in her pirate costume!
(complete with Shanes eye patch)


Ms E was Wendy in her purple nightgown and bow!!


And I was . . . . Peter pan!!
I had a hat which was left in the van,
and a feather which was left at home!!
Ha ha well I can pretend right!!


Dwight was a Smarties box and Brent was a member of KISS!!
We had such a good time!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!
