Scary-face kids with their scary-face pumpkins. We carved these pumpkins as a family the night before Halloween. We let Adelyn and Preston each carve their own.
Annalise wore this pumpkin costume all evening for the occasion. Addie called her the third pumpkin.
Pumpkin pancakes shaped like pumpkins!! Our new Halloween breakfast tradition (topped with a chocolate chip face and lots of whipped cream).
Ryan dressed up in Russian garb for school and trick-or-treating. Most of the little kids thought he was a pirate though.
Dinner in a Pumpkin may or may not become a regular tradition. Adelyn is the only one of our kids to try it. But Ryan and I LOVED it, so we'll definitely eat it again.
Do these kids look ready to go trick-or-treating? Well, they were more than ready. We went along Main Street to the shops, then we went around the neighborhood and AF High School. Our final stop was at Grandma Rocque's to show off our costumes.
Adelyn decided to change to this pink dress for trick-or treating. The long flowing red sleeves on the other dress were a bit too cumbersome for an energetic 6-year old. (Thanks Aunt Amber for letting us borrow the dresses.) After insisting I put "princess make-up" on her for school, she had me wash it all off that night because it hurt her eyes. :)
Preston made the perfect fierce dragon. He had so much fun trick-or-treating. He's my big candy-lover.
There's that tongue again! Annalise stayed in the stroller and ate suckers the whole night while trick-or-treating. People would try to talk to her and she'd just look at them with a blank stare. We told them she was probably in a sugar coma.
At AF High, Preston got a shark painted on his face. Adelyn had a rainbow. We had a wonderful Halloween. We love spending these special times with our kids.
