This Was Halloween

On Monday, we had our Family Home Evening where in which we carved pumpkins.  Or attempted to. 

Orrin and I scraped the guts out while the kiddos were at school, or napping, whichever may be the case.

(Oh, and OP did most of the work.  What can I say?  He loves me)

 And then we carved.  Well- Orrin, Piper, and Porter carved.

 Adi carved a mustache on hers and then whined that it was too hard to finish the rest.

So OP did.

Wyatt watched a Halloween movie (after he threw his pumpkin on the ground three times),

 so Orrin carved his.

And then my messed-up hands gave out, so he carved mine also.

Such a good guy.

In the wee hours of Wednesday morning, the Halloween visited our home and left it so very prettily decorated.

Incredible work, right?  ;)

And yes, those are chocolate chip spider pumpkin muffins,

 Porter Pot really liked the decorations.

Well, everyone did. Except Wyatt.  He just wanted to throw everything on the floor.

This year, the girlies ditched the rest of us.  Piper went to her BFFL's.

 Adi went to her BFFL's.

Notice the matching costumes?

At the last minute, I whipped up Wyatt a new costume.  Because I felt guilty that not a single person would get his Doctor Who costume.

Hello, Clark Kent.

He refused to have the cape around his neck.

And the werewolf was stuck with us too.

And then we went trick-or-treating with Minnie Mouse.

There were quite a few people that really got into the holiday this year.

There was a person inside of that coffin right there in the bottom left corner.

Fun, fun night.  Once PG was tuckered out and begging to go home, I collected the girlies from their buddy's.

Happy Halloween!

Thank goodness it's over.
