Trick or Treat!

We kicked off the Halloween festivities one week early with the carving of the pumpkins. The kids were so excited to carve pumpkins that we grew in our own yard. Now, when you're doing the pumpkin thing it's important to have - first and foremost - an elegant carving tool. Like Rob's hack saw.

This year I asked the kids to please, please, please pick costumes that we already own. I love to sew and can sew but I just didn't feel like sewing costumes. It would take time away from my other projects. They looked so cute!! We had the best trick or treat weather ever!! No coats needed - how fun is that? Lucky me, it was my year to take the kids around the neighborhood. Rob is back on next year when it will be snowing.
