Halloween! - Prep..

Halloween is in full swing around here... Zoey asks DAILY if today is Halloween... 

First the costumes...  Dax is a lion... since his signature animal noise is 'roar'

Zoey wanted to be a princess... how appropriate...

Then of course pumpkins... Their school has a pumpkin patch every year, so we went and got a few pumpkins.. a perfect activity for afterschool... we first started with every art supply I could think of...

 and I ended up drawing a face on Zoey's

Daxton's pumpkin, the family pumpkin, and 'Zoey's' pumpkin...

Then Zoey decided that stickers would be better for her pumpkin... so stickers we did...

then finally... on Sunday she asked to "open" her pumpkin.. and it just so happened that some friends were having a pumpkin carving party.. so we took her pumpkin.. and ended with this...

i'm sure this will not be our last pumpkin to carve.. as this one is sure to only last a few days...
