halloween

Here are the pictures from our weekend of Halloween festivities. On Saturday night, we carved a pumpkin. Liam had lots of fun squishing the insides of it after we took the top off: We let him paint the back of it before bed, then I took over and carved Thomas the train.



Here are the kids trying on their costumes:

Liam explained all about how trick or treat works



We invited the Shaws to come trick-or-treat with us, so we made fun food for us all to enjoy. Here are our mummy hot dogs!



Spider oreos, and pretzel treats: And a pumpkin made from 2 bundt cakes. The mold was a gift from a neighbor who "boo'd" me; a game where you surprise a neighbor with a basket of treats and then the neighbor boo's someone else, etc. I love my neighborhood!And here's the final constrction worker costume, right before trick-or treat:My friend made the toolbelt, and my mom made the vest, complete with reflective trim! The headlamp was a big hit with Liam, and it helped us see on the dark, rainy night!


Here are Liam and Maya, the tiger:
