HALLOWEEN!

It's Halloween at the house of spooks.
Ghosts and goblins have us shaking in our boots!

Aidan finally settled on zombie for his costume this year after mulling over some very diverse ideas (including two headed dragon and wizard with a jet pack). Bren did a pretty good job with the gore. He made the suit jacket out of a black sweatshirt and scrap fabric.







Here come the others...



Little tink spreading pixie dust. Sophie had a great party at her preschool yesterday. It included t-shirt painting, halloween games, trick or treat and a pinata to wrap it all up. Pretty fancy for sure.





Asher finally let me put on his gnome hat. Here he is guarding the front door.



On a break from guard duty. Even gnomes need technology breaks.



Daphne knew exactly who she wanted to be very early on. Her costume earned her first place in the church costume contest.





Bren decided to break out the Moses costume complete with a new and improved beard made of polyester quilt batting. His efforts earned him first place in the adult church costume contest as well.





Sophie says, But mom, what is Halloween for?
I say, To dress up, get candy, and put up spooky decorations.
Sophie says, Cool.

Yes it is.
