Halloween Weekend

Here comes my monster of a blog post with a bajillion pictures...

Saturday afternoon we went to a little pumpkin patch near our home and picked out a couple of pumpkins.

Rylee was stoked to ride in the wheel barrow, just like I did in the stories I tell her about when I was a little girl and my daddy would takes us on walks around the block in a wheel barrow (:

That night we got dressed and went to a trunk-or-treat party at church.

Introducing...Pinkalicious!

And don't forget her Pink Cupcake (:

(Oh and, of course, Mo - the bumblebee!)

Pinkalicious chasing down her Cupcake to...what else?

Take a bite!

As soon as we made the rounds, Cailyn took a seat in the parking lot and dug in

Storybooks collide when Pinkalicious meets Fancy Nancy!

Unfortunately these are the only pictures we got of Little Red and the Granny Wolf...you can't tell because it's dark, but there are wolf ears coming out the top of the hat!

Fortunately, unlike in the book, a bath managed to wash away the pink. (Well most of it...Rylee's hair still has a slight pink tinge to it...)On Sunday, the actual Halloween, we had our own little family party with

mummy and jack-o-lantern pizzas

rolling pins and up-side-down cookie cutters

pumpkin carving

sugar cookie decorating

Grandma Mac's creations

Rylee's creations (I was very impressed with the eyes and noses!)

Grandma Joanne spent the whole night cleaning up everyone else's messes. Thanks Grandma!

And, last but not least, a haunted gingerbread house!

We had a spooktacular time!
