Happy Halloween!

On Sunday, we packed up Cinderella, Prince Charming and a little mouse/cat and headed to the pumpkin patch.  It was a beautiful day and so fun watching the kiddos looking for the perfect pumpkin.  I wasn’t totally sure that we would be leaving with Prince Charming – the teenage girls who were working at the pumpkin patch wanted to take him home.

Gaga and Papa are here on their way to Mexico – we just love having them here!

Today, we carved one of the pumpkins…the bumpy one was as hard as concrete so Charlie worked his magic with markers.

Checking out their jack-o-lantern (doesn’t everyone do that in the bathroom?)

Tonight, we had a little Halloween party and the kids were in heaven!  The volume level was unbelievable, but it was so fun to see the kiddos so happy.  After playing on the driveway for a little while, the kids fueled up on mummy hotdogs, pizza, and fruit and then hit the streets.  They LOVED trick-or-treating and it was so fun watching the six big kids tearing across the lawns.  Sweet Prince Charming was always about one house behind, but he didn’t mind – he was just thrilled to point out every “Halloween punkin” and the moon (about 3 dozen times each).  And Keanan slept through the whole experience while in the baby carrier.

It all looks like so much fun! Really makes me miss those kiddos - and their parents.

Great photos! Cora enjoyed seeming them, too. She said of Ellie, "Her crown stays on!" :-D
