{Halloween Weekend}

with Dave out of town
Halloween really snuck up on us.
the big day seemed to get all smooshed together into one big orange blur.

Saturday we carved our pumpkins.
what fun that was.
it brought back a flood of memories of carving my own pumpkins as a kid.
and the countless ones I did in my classrooms too.

for some reason the girls decided they wanted to "harvest" their own before carving.
goofy little cuties.

I know these pictures are so blurry 

and the lighting is bad.

but I just couldn't help myself

the looks on their faces were so priceless.

where do they get such totally expressive expressions....

Dave says he knows...

ha ha must be a girl thing!!:)

love how different these look.

Janey's had bangs and hair and

Riley's had peace signs for eyes.

after countless "is it time yet??"

the big moment was finally here.

Scarecrow, Minnie and Pup-a-Dup

could finally suit up.

not a real lollipop...just a stick with some "crumbs" left on it

but boy did it make her happy.

Aubrey and I did a few houses

then headed home.

the girls were real troopers and

traveled quite a distance.

but I guess when candy is involved

one can do amazing feats!

Hope you all had a 

Happy Halloween!

Enjoy the day,

Cindy
