October

Well this month pretty much speaks for itself.  Pumpkins and Halloween.  I think that pretty much sums it up.

Pumpkins

Ella had a school project-turn a pumpkin into a storybook character.  Naturally, we made something awesome!

 We picked our giant pumpkin from the garden and got 'regular' ones to carve.

Isn't she just the cutest?

Halloween

At school (on Halloween day) they had 'Dress up like a Storybook Character' day.  They're really hung up on this whole storybook thing.  Umm, sure we'll play along.  Our Halloween costumes are characters...  

Pippi Longstocking and Frankenstein

Riley's on a roll.  Princess every year!  How much longer will this phase last??  Maddex was a fairy.  Little dress I picked up at a yard sale for .25.  

We had our Halloween party for the kids and their friends too, but I didn't take a single picture!
