Halloween 2009~

~Erin 4 1/2- Halloween 2009~

Being very shy I might add.


~Jack 1 year old- Halloween 2009~
With a very snacky face and nose...sorry!

~And this truly adorable Policeman~

~Witch Erin and Superman Jack~

With my two special darlings now in Maine, I'm able to go to things like- The Annual Halloween parade.

The parents {and Mimi's} arrive, get the children all dolled up in their costumes and off we go. A building away is a nursing and rehab center. The children and parents {and Mimi's}, parade by and give a command performance in their Halloween finery, walking out with little treats. I think the treat is for the residents here.

Back at nursery and preschool- it's snacks and more photo-ops. And time for all good Mimi's to head for home.
Aren't they adorable?

I think it's the little ones that make the holidays the best- when it's all new and magic and ... they believe!

Pumpkin Carving~

~Beautiful Pumpkin Carvings~

Our pumpkin this year is much more traditional- Jack-o-lantern style. Made for a much happier occasion because Erin was here to assist Pop-pop as 'Jack' watched from the sidelines.

Do you carve a pumpkin for Halloween? There are some pretty fantastic carvings out there- very ornate. When there is a 4 year old and a one year old involved, you choose the shortest distance between pumpkin and Jack-o-lantern!
