Halloween 2011

I just realized how bad my pictures turned out this year!  I wonder if my camera was on some funky setting by accident.  Sad!

This year for Halloween we had a pirate and a bumblebee!  Adam is really into pirates right now, so this was a great costume for him.  He loved saying “argh!” and “trick or treasure!” and other piratey things.

We had our church Trunk-or-Treat on Saturday night and the kids had a blast seeing their church friends dressed up.  Abby kept putting her pumpkin bucket down and trying to get the candy out.  I finally wound up carrying it for her and so we could keep moving.

On Halloween night we had yummy chili in bread bowls with my Mom and sister Danielle (who surprised us by coming with my Mom…my Dad was out of town).

Getting ready to go Trick-or-Treating.  Adam is waving his hook around like a crazy pirate.

We just did our little neighborhood and it was perfect.  This is the first year we’ve stayed home for Halloween since Adam was born.  My parents’ neighborhood is the classic fun neighborhood where every house is decked out and there are kids running around and laughing.  It was a change for us, but it was also good to see our neighbors.

It’s fun to think that next year we will have a little 5 month old trick-or-treater along for the ride too!  :)
