Pumpkin Carving and Halloween Costumes 2013

We got our pumpkins carved this year, in a mad rush like always!  Matt and I are not very creative so we like to follow patterns to make our pumpkins look decent!  I can't talk as I just help get the "guts" out of the pumpkins and let Matt do all the carving!  Lyla liked cleaning out her pumpkin this year but Hayden still just likes to watch.  Maybe next year she will clean the "guts" out!
This is what we came up with this year:

My mom made the girl's costumes again this year.  Lyla decided in the beginning of the year that she wanted to be Periwinkle (Tinker Bell's sister) and let Grandma know right away.  The costumes looked amazing like always and I'm so glad I have a crafty and talented mom I can lean on!  Hayden was Tinker Bell this year, a costume Lyla wore a couple years ago.
It rained on Halloween this year but we didn't let that stop us trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. The girls got lots of candy and love going through their buckets everyday to decide what they want to eat!

Candy buckets for my clients, candy for trick-or-treat and homemade Rice Krispies treats for Lyla to take to school

Happy Halloween!
