Happy Halloween

This past week has been a fun-filled-costume-wearing week. Last Saturday, Lily got to go to a birthday party for her friend McKayla. She dressed up at Belle from Beauty and the Beast. I don't have a picture, sadly but hopefully my friend Lindsey will get me one (hint hint). Then she for her preschool party on Thursday, she dressed up like Cinderella (with brown hair).

Then Friday she had a Halloween party at her friend Ryan's house. She dressed up as Pocahontas.

Friday night we all carved pumpkins. It was a really fun time. Even Isaac loved getting the guts out. Lily's design was pretty intricate. Good job Tommy for deciphering it and coming up with an awesome jack-o-lantern. There is also a goofy picture of Tommy doing the class "Lily cheese face".

Then yesterday for Halloween we had the real deal... Cinderella with blond hair. "I'm wearing a wig," she told everyone after saying "Trick or Treat". Isaac was a knight. The other knight in shiny armor is Braden our next door neighbor. Come to find out, after he saw Isaac's shield the day before, he made his dad make him one for Halloween. :) He was a cute knight. Isaac and Lily both enjoyed riding in the wagon in between houses. Isaac picked up very quickly on the whole idea of Trick or Treating... go to door, get candy. He was pretty excited to look into his bucket and see all his candy. We were glad to have my dad here visiting to enjoy the fun holiday with!

Poor Lily, who had started to catch my cold Saturday morning, wanted to go home after getting through half the neighborhood. She was tired and didn't even want any candy... just wanted to go home. Both kiddos definitely needed a good night's sleep. Tommy, my dad and I stayed up watching some scary Halloween movie on tv... yuck! I don't like scary movies! :) Hope you had a fun Halloween.
