Although Rachel's still not old enough yet for Trick or Treating (I think walking well is a prerequisite), we had a fun Halloween. Rachel discovered the joys of M&Ms and candy corn, and actually wore her costume for a whopping 20 minutes before getting sick of it. Good thing I bought it the day before Halloween after they had put everything on sale 60% off. :)

This isn't a Halloween picture, but aren't they just so darn cute??
Pumpkin CarvingWe didn't carve pumpkins last year, so this was Rachel's first experience with it. She was so intrigued the whole time.

"Mom, what is it?"

Helping scoop out the gunk.


She's going "oooh" into the pumpkin.

I think she would have climbed inside if it were big enough.

Giving it a taste. Not so good.

All done!
The Other Pumpkin

See if you can guess what my costume is. (My shirt says "Ceilings")

I am a "ceiling fan". I love wordplay costumes. Also, I am a dork.

Tiffany and Josh. I forget what exactly Josh was supposed to be.
We had a little party with Tiff and Josh and another couple that they knew. It was fun, we played games, had treats, and watched a non-scary movie (neither Tiffany nor I like being scared). And we got to give out candy to all the super cute neighborhood kids.
I'm not a huge fan of Halloween in general, but all in all it was a good time. And you know what the best part is?
Now it's time to get ready for CHRISTMAS!!!

I also like the pic where she's taking a bite of the pumpkin! You can tell it's not what she expected. I'm like you Mary, every Halloween I just keep thinking about how it's getting closer to Christmas!
Such great memories to save! Rachel's so cute!
Joey tasted his pumpkin and thought it was yummy.
