Preparations:
A few days before Halloween we carved our pumpkins.
Leilani did her own pumpkin for the first time. Actually, she did Elisabeth's too. I just outlined the pattern on it for her.
Emily cleaned out her pumpkin...
but Aunt Kim did the actual carving. She quit, though, and says she will never do it again unless I buy appropriate carving tools!
They sure turned out cute. In case you can't tell, we had Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and Ariel.
I actually did not help carve pumpkins at all. I babysat the little kids in the other room and played with my camera.
Benjamin and I went to school to watch the costume parade.
Then we checked out the party in the 3rd grade.

The fifth graders were having mummy wrapping contests.

Grandpa took the kids trick-or treating with their cousins.
We had Sleeping Beauty...

LOL- I LOVE Ben's pose for Mr. Incredible- priceless. The kids all look adorable in their costumes- how fun!
I agree, that is a darn cute picture of Ben. Your girls were pretty darn cute too! I almost bought you an electric pumkin carver today...it looks a lot like a turkey carver, but a lot smaller...I decided it was a little high tech for an old school pumpkin carver like myself, ha ha
Looks like everyone had a great time and had fun dressing up they all look GREAT!
Love the princess pumpkins!
