Happy Haunting

Halloween 2010. Can you believe that I was actually ready for it more than 1 day in advance. I was so proud of myself. And the weather was perfect for it. (Well, not like Texas weather "perfect") but considering where we live I thought we'd freeze. But no, it was a tad cool, but nothing more than jackets were required. I'm used to trick or treating in snow, sleet, and rain for goodness sakes! The doorbell rang all night. Loads and tons of kids in the neighborhood. I sure like that. Nothing better than seeing whole families walking around saying hello and getting some good treats.

Abby the cat. Kaden as Mario.

Josh was some sort of knight and Ethan was the grim reaper. Ah, they don't want to be clowns and firefighters anymore. Sad. The more scary, the better apparently. The boys are growing up.
This mask scared the living jeepers out of Kaden. Every time Ethan would put it on, Kaden would start to cry and run away. Ethan found this very amusing and started following him around scaring him. You know I shouldn't laugh but it was pretty funny!

Pumpkin Walk

The week before Halloween, our city puts on a pumpkin walk. What is a pumpkin walk you ask? Well, I didn't know either. Different people in the community set up a scene with painted pumpkin heads. Some of them were so creative! What talent people have. I took shots of some that I thought were really neat.

Abby in front of the totem pole.

The Hogwarts express: complete with Hargrid.

Disney princesses. The girls loved this one. Keep in mind these heads are all painted pumpkins.

Gotta love Thomas the Train!

This mountain men climbing Mt. Everest was the scene that our cub scouts put together.

Aren't these so creative! I loved the Alice in Wonderland cat.

The pretty princess girls.

Kaden refused to be Boots the Monkey so I'm practically laying in the dirt to get my head in the shot!

Pretty fun huh! There were so many cool things to look at and do. I'm glad that we got to go. Can't wait to go back next year.
