Halloween...Finally!

We had a lot of fun getting ready for Halloween. At the beginning of October, we went to a pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins. I loved it (even though Jeff accused me of just using it as a photo op--maybe a little truth in that)

Kate picked this one out.

Scott's favorite thing was to pull the wagon.



We also had a little Halloween party for preschool one day
We got a long piece of yarn and the kids walked around our circle in their costumes. It was so funny!

Scott, Austin, Amelia, Kate, Sadie, Lily, Haylia, Allison

Then, finally Halloween came. I was just going to take Kate trick or treating, but the boys wanted to come. They just stayed in the stroller, but loved the walk around the neighborhood.

Scott (white shoes)
And no, Kate was not Alice in Wonderland even though it looks that way. She was Dorothy, I was the Wicked Witch of the West, and Scott and Austin were my flying monkeys. Jeff was going to be the scarecrow, but we never pulled any costume together. Next year.
Not pictured was the Milne's Halloween party (Jeff did dress up--as Nate) which is always fun! I always love Halloween, it was so much fun and the kids kind of got into it. Can't wait til next Halloween!

I'm curious what preschool this is with little ones like your boys and Lilly. Are you guys doing a neighborhood one?
