A Halloween Collage

Halloween this year was a blast! It started with a little fun in some pumpkin gunk. We enjoy making traditions on holidays and so our Halloween one begins by putting our dining table in the front room (with a sheet under it of course) and watching a fun movie (Tinker Bell this year--loved it!) while eating Papa Murphy's pizza. Then we just leave the dishes in the sink and pull out the pumpkins. Taylor and Callie "spooned" out the guts of the pumpkin (well, Callie touched it once and that was it!) and later Taylor actually drew a face on her pumpkin.

Here is the final product. Taylor's is on the left, then Callie's, Brandon's Pirate (notice the patch) and Tina's lip girl--hee hee.

Below are the pictures we took right before we went to a friends house for a little Halloween fun. Aren't the girls beautiful? Callie is getting the hang of this picture thing by saying "cheese."

Our little Cinderella and Tinkerbell--THANKS Nana for making some sweet costumes!

This is at Brandon's work party. I am a princess as well and Brandon is Prince Charming. He said it was quite the task being a Prince of three Princesses!

After our pot-luck dinner and watching of "Charlie Brown: The Great Pumpkin," we always have a trick or treat event at each classroom door.

Here we are finally celebrating Halloween on Oct. 31st (the rest was just warming up)! We went to our ward trunk-or-treat. It started with a fun parade of all the kids and their costumes. Then Brandon took the girls around to each of the cars for some candy while I stayed at our van and handed out the candy. Afterwards we enjoyed some yummy donuts and hot cocoa. Later we wanted to give the girls a chance to actually go trick-or-treating so we went to a dozen homes and let them walk up the driveway and ring the doorbells themselves. They are truly adorable! What a fun Halloween!
