Halloween

We've just wrapped up another wonderful halloween with the neighbors. We enjoyed dinner together, then Zach and Sean set up the projector to watch game 4 of the world series on the neighbor's garage. Molly decided to ditch the fire truck and go as a Fire Fighter (or Chief?), which seemed to work well. Clara went as a cow (mistaken for Molly's dalmation by some). After the third house, when I said "let's run and catch up with Nate", she replied: "I just want to sit and eat the candy." So I took her back to the baseball game and she did just that. Nona and Paula continued on with the big kids.

Here they are:
Cleaning out the pumpkins; Molly showing off her pumkin guts; eighbor's halloween dinner; Clara's pumpkin (carved with a lot of verbal direction, ie. "put a nose here, and eye's here"); Molly's pumpkin (carved with almost no verbal direction, following her drawings almost exactly); Nate the vampire, Sofi the witch, Zach the mechanic, Molly the Fire Chief; Clara the pumpkin-headed cow; watching the game; Clara headed back to just eat candy; the cow and her candy; sister pumpkins; big kids trick or treating; big kids visiting with a very nice dog.
