For me, Halloween always feels like the real kickoff for "the holidays," which for us includes Oct - Jan (Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years and Three Kings Day). We have developed some very fun family traditions, and I love them. This Halloween, we ...
mAdE (happy) SpOoKy DeCoRaTiOnS
Everything we made was at Camden's specific request, including "happy pumpkins, happy witches, and happy ghosts." They all had to have smiles. If they didn't, I had to re-cut the mouths. He is such a crack-up, that one!
CaRvEd PuMpKiNs,
ewwwww
I did my best to assist Trent, the pumpkin-carving master.
Of course, at our house, this process requires power tools. Duh!
Hello, kitty! (Those little pumpkins are some of the ones from our garden.)
Meeeooow! (Told you Trent is the pumpkin-carving master!)
DrEsSeD uP,
We always trick-or-treat to Great-Grandma, of course. :) Thanks to Grandma (Ricki) for dressing up her doggie and to Truffles for being such a good sport!
The bees and the beekeeper. We won "best family" in the costume contest at the church Trunk or Treat. Pretty sure Truffles tipped the scales.
HuNg OuT with the NeIgHbOrS,
One of my favorite parts of trick-or-treating is catching up with everyone on the street. We have such a great neighborhood.
Camden and Sophie are buds.
MaDe YuMmY TrEaTs,
I made "apple mouths" for Camden's preschool: apple slices, peanut butter, and mini marshmallows.
Of course, we had to make the quintessential Feist iced sugar cookies. (Cam had a blast decorating them. Daddy felt they were a little heavy on the candy, but what are you going to do?)
Lots and lots of sugar cookies. They didn't last long around here though!
HaD a PaRtY!
We had fun at Camden's family party at preschool.
Isn't he cute?
Here are some videos from the party, mostly for the grandparents. :)
From our family to yours:
HaPpY HaLLoWeeN!
