Halloween was actually fun this year because we had a small human as opposed to a small baby. We even got to carve a pumpkin together! We had some jack-o-lantern decorations so she chose the design and then she got to carve some of the pieces out. Tradition at our house is that Mom roasts the seeds for a snack afterwards. Let me tell you something: Mom can roast some pumpkin seeds ya'll.
This year V dressed up as Angelina Ballerina and graced everyone with her dance moves all over the place. We're pretty sure she's going to want to take dance when she's older and slightly more coordinated. Halloween this year was a success all around as there were no injuries and both of the cousins only yard saled once a piece! That's progress people. Next year, we're shooting for only one of them to eat it once. V went up to each house and said an audible "Trick or Treat?!" and then after receiving candy, said "Thank you!" Some things stick with your kid: Candy at Halloween is one of those things. Saying "Thank you" is not. We had to remind her
Pumpkin carving is hard work but rewarding because...
We get an awesome jack-o-lantern in the end!
J is in the bee costume. V is the ballerina mouse. Janis is the mother-in-law.
No mouse costume is complete without a tail.
V and Mom with her epic...
The kids are staring at the giant pile of loot instead of the camera. Figures.
