Halloween Costumes!

I had to post this picture because I think it is hilarious!!! Josh decided he wanted to be a spooky tree and hold really still in our front yard and then scare people as they walked by. I wasn't sure it was going to work but you should have heard the screams!!!! It was very funny, poor girls!

Elijah was GI Joe this year

Bronwynn decided she wanted to be Batgirl who saves Kyoshi warrior (that's me in case you were wondering). The Kyoshi warriors are from one of my favorite cartoons, which is being made into a movie!!!, called Avatar: the last airbender



Halloween Decorations

We found this great book this year with this idea in it! Family tradition anyone?
We loved these flaming pumpkins!

Flaming Pumpkin #2

Flaming Pumpkins #3
We figured out that we needed more decorations throughout the house so we rigged up this spiderweb in our kitchen using black yarn, black electrical tape, and black crepe paper!!!
