Halloweiners

In the tradition of running around costume clad throught the night at least once a year, my lawyer has advised me not to discuss our other costumed escapades, we bring you our Halloweeners Gallery of Terror...or Cuteness, which ever you like.



The above pumpkins were carved the monday before Halloween as a FHE (Family Home Evening) activity.  The Kids had fun picking out the seeds and cleaning off the slime.  Kelsey was more gung ho than John.  Although he did eventually get his hands dirty.  From Left to Right: Shawn's Skrull-O-Lantern, Linda's Shooting Stars in Squash, and Finally John and Kelseys Smiley with Pokey Teeth.

We ended up roasing the seeds in a little oil and salt.  They turned out really well, and the kids loved them!  These are pictures of John, who snuck down when he was supposed to be asleep, enjoying the aroma of the seeds.


And, what you really came here to see.  The Kids in their Halloween Cutness.  

Kelsey as Ragedy Ann.  We did the red hair for Boo at the Zoo, and that was enough for us.  It's really messy!



John as a Pirate Crocodile. It's really a turtle costume, but Linda convinced him that it was an Aligator early on and it's stuck.



And Bekah as...The Frog "Which every one of your kids has been at some point in time."



We hope your Halloween was a great as ours.
