Halloween

The kids carved their pumpkins and had a great time. Connor would not put his hands in to get the seeds out so I had to do it for him. I put his hand inside the pumpkin and he said it was gross. He did enjoy cutting it out. Trevor went high tech this year and carved the pumpkin above- 3 wolves howling at the moon. There were tiny little lines to cut but he did a great job- just a little help from mom!

Halloween was a lot of fun this year. The City of Clinton decided that Halloween should be on the 30th so we trick-or-treated a day early. The kids had a lot of fun dressing up. Meghan was Ariel so we colored her hair red- it took 4 cans of red spray and I was really nervous that it would not wash out but it did!! Yay!!! Several people asked if she was wearing a wig and couldn't believe it when we said no.
Trevor was a fighter pilot- his favorite part of the costume was the shades!! I think he just wanted to race and see how much candy he could get. Connor was a Clone Trooper but everytime we went to the store he would see a different costume and tell me he changed his mind. Even Kyle decided he wanted to trick or treat (well, actually he just wanted candy) and his friends helped him dress up as a mummy.

Kyle even went to a couple of houses to trick-or-treat but stopped when he realized he was leaving a trail of toilet paper everywhere!
