happy halloween

we've had a fun week carving our jack-o-lanterns, gathering the last bits of costumes, and then getting dressed up twice. once for school (dug out stuff from our dress up box) and then tonight for treating around the neighborhood.
first the pumpkins. kellen always sketches out a whole page before choosing his perfect design.
casey knew what she wanted right away and went for it. i love their pumpkins every year, but i do think these are my new favorites.

kitty and blockhead

they both decided to be book characters this year.

Casey chose Ladybug Girl

and Kellen was Bilbo Baggins from The Hobbit

we met up with Minecraft Steve and a friendly ghost for a walk around the hood for treats.
it did not rain, or snow, so it was a win! a bit chilly but nothing a hot shower and cup of cocoa couldn't cure. 

happy halloween everyone!
