Hallowe'en!

What a fun Halloween we had! Victoria was a tiger (as you can see) and she got her hair sprayed orange to match at school- thankfully it came out in her bath that night! Naomi was a pink unicorn (anything pink and sparkly is her favorite!) and Olivia was a little black cat (she was adorable!).

This year we got to design and carve lots of pumpkins- we grew most of them in our garden! The girls had fun coming up with ideas for eyes, noses and mouths. It was Naomi's idea to put 'googly' eyes on one of them- the eyes even glowed in the dark. We also loved roasting and eating the seeds. Yummy!

Daddy took them all out trick-or-treating and they came back twice to empty their buckets so they could keep going! Soooooo much candy! Olivia did not really know what to think of it all. At the first door they gave her 2 pieces of candy- one for each hand. She would not let go of them, until she realized at the next door that she was going to get 2 more- it was only then that she let Daddy put the first 2 in her bucket, and she took the next 2. Then she maintained a vice-grip on those until they reached the next door and she was offered more. In the bag those 2 went and she took 2 new ones. It went on like that for every door she visited!!

Mom stayed home and manned the door. At about 8:00 we ran out of candy!! That has never happened before. We had about 100 kids! Wow!! I had to root through all the kids candy for the bubble gum and anything else that I though they would not miss so I still could give out candy!! It sure was a fun night.

Daddy dressed up as a tacky Hawaiian tourist and Mommy was a witch- there are no pictures of me though- that is what happens when you are behind the camera.... I did look good with my little black cat though!
