Savannah and Kaleb chose their own costumes for Halloween this year. Savannah knew all year long that she wanted to be a mermaid--Ariel the Little Mermaid, to be precise. She didn't like any of the costumes in the stores...because they didn't really look like mermaids anyway...so I ended up, for the very first time sewing something of my own pattern and creation! It may have not been to perfection, but she loved it nonetheless =) It was freezing on Oct. 31st this year so I ended up having to pin the seashells to her sweater. All was well. Kaleb, chose the "g-waff" costume complete with chubby, squishy cheeks! Irrisistable!!! He was proud because it made him "sooooo tall"! Needless to say, the kids had a wonderful time dressing up and getting one sugar high after another...=)

Carving, Costumes and Candy!
As you can see, we decided to dig in and carve a silly pumpkin face this Fall. Savannah and Kaleb really enjoyed getting their hands in the gooey pulp and seeds. Savannah detailed the inside of the pumpkin...with not a string or seed left behind. She's very much a perfectionist =). The final result was a success! Our Jack-o-lantern was finally ready to greet the trick-or-treaters!
