Halloween Madness

   Halloween was a bit crazy this year. We had the boys' birthday celebrations on November 1st. So, we had a full house on the 31st. Jut's mom, sister, brother-in-law and niece made our weekend even more fun. Mario, a bee with super kitty, a little adorable witch, Princess Leia and a chick made our ensemble. It was a crazy crew but we had a good time. The weather was wretched. But, we made the best of it.

We carved pumpkins again. I think we missed last year. We raised our pumpkins in the garden this year. X had his 'perfect' pumpkin picked out in September and waiting until Halloween to carve it was so hard. But, finally it was time.

The boys weren't super helpful cleaning theirs. But they enjoyed watching the process and designing their pumpkin faces. E was amazing. A couple of years makes such a difference. She cleaned and carved hers all by herself.  I was impressed.

I did take E's pic with her pumpkin right away...but I forgot with the boys'. So, the bottom picture isn't the best as it was a few days later but at least there is some pictorial evidence that they got to carve pumpkins another year.
