Halloween 2010

We hope Halloween was a fun event at your home; it certainly was at ours. 

After church we visited a local pumpkin patch to pick the best jack-o-lantern pumpkins we could find.

It was the biggest decision Claire would make all day. She finally found the perfect pumpkin.

 And Lilly did too...

Once home, dad helped carve the jack-o-lanterns while the girls watched in anticipation...

Once the sun went down, trick-or-treat time began...

 With all the anticipation of the big event, little Claire missed her nap. Almost half-way through our trick-or-treating adventure, she fell asleep sitting up in the wagon. The poor child nodded her head but managed to stay in the wagon.  I took her home and tucked her into bed while Rob took Lilly around the rest if the neighborhood.

 When Lilly came home, she sorted through her candy and chose only a few items to keep. The remainder will be set by the front door for the Great Pumpkin to eat tonight. The Great Pumpkin mysteriously comes by every Halloween night to take away the candy. In the candy's place he leaves toys. Such anticipation! What will he bring? We will find out in the morning....
