Jack-o-Lanterns, Costumes & Chocolate–OH MY!!

pic 1 Last Monday afternoon Mama and I put up the remaining Halloween deocrations. This poor ghost is about to burn more calories than ever before—it’s WINDY!!!

pic 1 Aunt Robyn came over too. She and I wanted to carve a pumpkin together (Mama is too chicken to get her hands diry!)…

pic 1 but I think she looks a little too excited holding that really big knife!!! (Do I need insurance?)

pic 1 Oh! She was just cutting the top off!

pic 1 Yeah, Mama might be right. This is a pretty gooey job.

pic 1 Cool! I’ve never seen inside a real pumpkin before. Well, at least not that I remember. (Will this thing turn into a pumpkin pie when we’re done?)

pic 1 A splash of blue for the hair…a little brown for the nose and eyes and of course some red for the cheeks and mouth–drawing on the pumpkin was the best part!

pic 1 Now…where’s the pumpkin pie?

pic 1 Well, apparently there is no pumpkin pie. However, we do have a really cool cat Jack-o-Lantern…

pic 1 that glows in the dark!

pic 1 Halloween morning I went to visit (and trick-or-treat some) at Aunt Robyn’s work. She was dressed like Dora the Eplorer!! I totally recognized her voice, but I wasn’t sure about looking at her.

pic 1 Then after dinner Mama, Papa and I along with Heather and Kyle went trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. At first, I wasn’t sure what we were doing.

pic 1 But then I saw the play-doh and chocolate at our neighbor’s house…and we were off! (Papa even gave me a chocolate bite when Mama wasn’t looking! Yum!) Let’s go to the next house!!!

pic 1 We saw lots of really cool costumes….including a traveling group of about 6-7 witches! This house had a mini-haunted house set up in their drive-way and garage. It was a little creepy, but the big kids were nice and didn’t jump out at us, plus they gave us chocolate!

I hope everyone had a great Halloween. We’ll see you next week! P.S. Happy Birthday Terese!!!

    Hi, I think Aunt Robyn should have borrowed Aby Black’s purple Dora backpack. Great Dora Hair. :)
    Nolan & Robyn-great job on the pumpkin face. Mom -great pix.
    Nolan-it looks like you had as much fun as I did dressing up for halloween. It was warm for NY and we had lots of kids come by for treats. Gr’Pa Dave made 3 Jack O Lanterns.
