Happy Halloween

Halloween 2011 has come and gone.  Halloween fell on a Monday this year, but it was still full of multiple festivities.  Sunday morning we carved our pumpkin... Owen designed the face and for the first time didn't mind scooping out the goop from inside the pumpkin! 

We then moved on to the neighborhood "spook-out" on the afternoon of the 30th.  The kids were excited to put on their costumes, but Mason refused to wear the hat and glasses that came with his (DJ Lance Rock sans hat and glasses made Mason look like a candy corn!)  Nevertheless, I was able to get my one and only picture of the three kids in their costumes. 

The next day was Halloween and Owen and Mason's classes at Great Falls Elementary school were both holding costume parades and Owen's class also had a small party.   It was fun to see all of the kids in their school environment and all the kid's costumes. 



Here is Mason with his alter ego, DJ Lance Rock ...

And here is Owen practicing his ninja moves and another with his Kindergarten class...

And finally a picture of our little kitty cat, Amelia.

We finished the day with some trick or treating at the Great Falls Village Center and then back at home in the neighborhood.  When the day was done, the kids were full of candy, exhausted and ready for bed! (and so were we!)
