Halloween 2010

We had the best Halloween this year! Friday night we spent the evening cleaning out and carving our pumpkins.

Brynn was really into carving this year. I had to distract her with other "jobs" so I could do a little carving at a quicker pace. Shortly thereafter she caught on and was back in my lap "helping" me carve some more. She's getting too smart for me!
The final products!

Saturday we had our second annual Halloween party. It was SO much fun. All the kids were absolutely adorable and did so well playing together.


Here's Nolan in his pre-costume skeleton outfit.
Before the party began Aubrey kept herself entertained on top of the table.
Amanda, Jas, and Eli stopped over for a bit. They had to leave early so Eli isn't in the group shot of the kids so I thought I better put the cutie in here!

After playing a couple quick games we set up some paints so the little ones could paint some pumpkins...I'm still finding paint on random walls throughout my house!

Rotted apple grins,
creepy fingers,
more creepy fingers,
and mummies (for the kids) were just a few of the fun foods we ate.

The little kids eating some dinner......and the big kids eating dinner.
An attempt to get a picture of all the kids in their costumes. Lots of smarties were eaten during this photo shoot and we still didn't get a good one!
Cara, who doesn't like anyone, loved Uncle Derek!
To wind the night down we got all the kids in their jammies and played with flashlights and glow sticks. A BIG hit.
Sunday night we ate an early dinner so we could head out and do our own trick-or-treating. Our annual shot of the girls and the dogs didn't turn out, but hey we captured a moment in time right?!?
Colby Cheese (doctor), Brynn Tressa (giraffe), Cara Noelle (elephant), and Oliver Pedro (mailman)

The girls thought they were so cool sitting out on the steps in the dark AND eating suckers!


I'm not sure why this video ended up here...it's from the fun party!
