Activities from Halloween

On Thursday afternoon we carved all 3 pumpkins. The weather was a little crisp but we got them finished. The girls were more into scooping out the guts than Sam was which was surprising to me.
Evidently there was an issue with splattering of the pumpkin guts... Madison's face is priceless.

All 3 of the little Halloween lovers... Sam, Catherine and Madison.
Caroline carved her own pumpkin this year... she was a bit scary with the knife.

Caroline's pumpkin's grin is a bit crooked... but it just gives him more character.



HALLOWEEN NIGHT

Our 3 little trick or treaters... Sam is Spiderman (of course since it's all he wears), Catherine is Glenda the Good Witch from Wizard of Oz, and Madison is the cutest little Bumblebee ever.

Gizzy was the Grinch... which she was not at all happy about. I don't know why not... she was adorable and received more comments on her costume than the 3 little ones.

We trick or treated around Tyler and Alisha's new neighborhood, only to fine one house with lights on... evidently there are not a lot of little children who live there... so we went on to Mom's church for their fall festival which attracts about 1000 people from the community. The little kids have gone every year since Catherine was 1. She has never trick or treated at people's doors until this year... and then we only hit one house.

At the church there is always a petting zoo with ferrets, goats, bunnies, guinea pigs and this year a turtle that Sam was so happy to hold. He held it like it was a newborn kitten...
The kids all played games for candy, the volunteers were so patient and nice. No matter what candy was in the prize bucket... Sam always went for the lollipops.


Alisha and Gizzy

By the end of the night Gizzy was cold and exhausted so she hitched a ride in Tyler's jacket.
