Eeek!!!

Our Halloween was so much fun and very eventful this year. Our Trick-or-Treating was rained out so we only stopped by a few houses but the girls were just excited to be able to wear their costumes. This year Austin and I had totally been occupied by other things and completely forgot to get a pumpkin to carve...I know, I know, we are terrible parents! So the night before Halloween at 9pm we drove around frantically looking to buy a pumpkin and the ONLY place that wasn't sold out of them was Harmon's(probablay cause they were charging .79 a pound!!!!) What!?! Our pumpkin ended up costing $13! Seriously. Then- when we got home to carve it, it was hard as a rock and our only option was to paint a face. Never again will we procrastinate getting a pumpkin! Elena still thought the face was cool!Then, since our theme this year was spiders, Elena helped me make spider-web cupcakes. We used food coloring to turn the cake batter orange, then used sparkly gel to create the webs. They turned out pretty yummy!

Our house was full of cobwebs and spider decorations!

Austin and I were punk rockers. I don't know why Austin didn't paint his face...he was planning on it but I guess he just didn't get around to it?:) Elena was a dragon and Chanel a spider.

We were visited by some VERY interesting creatures. Witches, Dracula, Frankenstein, Elmo, a Fireman, and a very energetic man with a cane. (Not sure what your official name was, Boompa:)

We also had a mummy friend stop by, but for some reason, he kept trying to get out the window!

I love this one because of Chanels face, hehe.We hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween!
