Pumpkins and Trick or Treating

October 30th continued-31st

After all the fun of costumes and milk jugs we moved onto the big attraction – PUMPKIN CARVING! Ken cleaned out all but one of them himself to speed along the process and the kids all took turns doing the last.101_5009

101_5010Carving was up to the kids with strict supervision and some Daddy assistance.

101_5014I think we did a grand job of creating some very imaginative Jack ‘o Lanterns.101_5018

Echo even did a little Halloween fashion. Last year’s pieces still fit!!101_5002

101_5003101_5005Onwards to Halloween and spooky pictures thanks to Art for Kids (link on right).101_5021

We got the chance to tape and then watch the movie based on the book Room on the Broom.101_5022

Of course we had to eat that GIANT rice krispie square…101_5023

Combined with the kids’ first of the program free pizza for reading from Pizza Hut. This is Trinity’s first year!!! Nana and Baba took them to pick it up (you have to have the kids there to use the coupon).101_5024

We also put up Nana’s Halloween themed window stickers.101_5025

Before we knew it it was time for an early dinner – with ORANGE jell-o (thematic).101_5026

And then time to get back into those costumes and over to the Novaks for the long anticipated Trick-or-Treating. Although we had to suddenly convince Echo that Little Red Ridinghood was a “Prinpress”. I love the addition of Trinity’s church coat to her costume. Functional and adorable. We were joined by zombies and creative painted creatures and after our Trick or Treat adventure sat back and enjoyed some Halloween themed games and visiting! Sit back and enjoy the parade of pictures!!!
