Our fun and festive week leading up to Halloween was a bit dampered due some sniffles, little fevers and some rainy days, but...we made up for it with some pumpkin carving and trick or treating this weekend!
We picked out some perfectly round pumpkins and we (Todd) got to work on carving them just how Bridget wanted. A scary face, a haunted house and a kitty bat!
She made a yucky face as fished out the pumpkin guts, but still went back in for more!
Ta-Da! Nice carving, Todd!
One of our creepy outdoor spiders. These spiders are all the rage in our neighborhood. Everyone has them in their yard and on their house. We had to add a few more to our collection this year too!
Halloween fell on a school day for Bridget this year, so the fun started bright and early in the morning. Ross can't WAIT to be a big school kid like his sister!
Dressing up for school
Bridget and a few of her school friends
At her school party we decorated cookies to look like pumpkins. Pretty good, B...
Most of the kids ate just the icing, but no cookie...or all the little chocolate chips, but no icing...or peeled off the candy corn and nibbled on the cookie. Bridget ate every last morsel:)
Finally time to trick or treat! There was NO keeping Ross out of the candy. He stole a bag of M&M's from our basket before we even left!
Everyone in the neighborhood loved our little pumpkin and spider!
{sweet}
Blurry, but happy picture of the 4 of us:)
It was a happy night with a lot of sweet little, "Trick or Treats" and "Thank You's". Bridget was the big sister who led the way, while Ross happily followed behind. It doesn't get any better than that!
