Halloween 2010

We had a fun Halloween week this year! On October 23rd we went to my sister's house for dinner and then cookie decorating and pumpkin carving. The kids had a blast decorating the cookies and eating all of the candy!


Then we moved on to pumpkin carving. Abigail loved taking the guts out of the pumpkin. Henry did a little bit, but Johanna preferred to snuggle with Grandpa or look at the pumpkin from a distance.



We ended up with a spider in a web, haunted house, elmo and a face. It was such fun!

On the 30th (since Halloween was on Sunday this year) we went trick-or-treating. We started the night by going to Heritage, where my Grandma Northouse had lived. We visited her friend, Sara, who was really special to her.
Abigail was dressed as Nancy Drew...specifically from the book "Nancy Drew and the Wedding Day Disaster."
Henry was Woody from Toy Story.
Johanna was a sweet princess...most of the time.

Except when I wouldn't let her have a tootsie-pop to start off the night.
Next we went over to YoYo and Papa's house for a little more trick-or-treating with the cousins.
And a little "Pumpkin Moonshine" to end the night.

I love the photo of Johanna's meltdown, and the idea of you pointing your camera down at her during it. You are my kind of momma, Bethany Mulder.
