Halloween

Wow has the month of October just flown by. We've had so many different events it's nice to look forward to a somewhat quiet November.

On Friday night we carved our pumpkins. We invited over Grandpa & Grandma, and Aunt April. It turned out to be fun night. While they finished carving pumpkins I started cutting out the sugar cookies. We decorated the cookies on Saturday.



I used the nighttime setting on the camera so we could show that the pumpkins were glowing. The pumpkins stayed nice and still but as you can see the kids were not able to stay still. Bonnie is behind her pumpkin, Chas is behind his pumpkin, and I carved the white pumpkin.

For Halloween I decided the kids needed to be cowboys! They had the red hats I just needed to add a few pieces of clothing and they'd be ready to go. I sewed up a vest for Chas and added his badge. Chas was the deputy! Then with Bonnies outfit, I had started with this one first, I kind of had to adjust as I made it. In the end I really liked the way it turned out. I also sewed up a skirt for Bonnie to wear because she is a girl and cowgirls need skirts. Bonnie's badge read Sheriff. So we had a Sheriff and a Deputy. They also had guns that they wore in the holsters.



We also tried to get a shot with Charlotte in her carseat with the kids.

Hope everyone else had a great Halloween.

Halloween

It's Halloween here at our house. I have to admit all I want to do is go back to bed and sleep all day. I'm a little sad about the costumes I made.

Chas's neck is a little too thick for the cape - Looks like I'll need to do a little last minute work there.


Bonnie will not wear her's at all. Maybe she'll be more excited when she see's other kids dressed up too.
On another note. I finished a doll for my friends daughter's third birthday. I hope she likes it.

Have a Happy Halloween.
