Halloween

Monday night we got our pumpkins carved, we didn't do anything fancy like we normally do and Presley wouldn't put her hand in the pumpkin to help take out the grossy stuff (as she would say).

She did color on the two pumpkins for her and Piper though.

and of course we used Steve's tools to carve pumpkins b/c that is alot easier than using a little knife.

This is the night she found my bachelorette party crown and veil. Steve did the hawkeye pumpkin and I did your basic pumpkin face.

Our little Dorothy and cowardly lion (for the second year).

Both P and B were able to wear their same costumes from last year! Perfect for us! We practiced over and over with Presley so that she was prepared to say Trick or Treat and thank you when she got candy. But when it came down to actually going up to strangers houses and having to talk to them....wasn't going to happen. She refused. Thank goodness Boston cooperated so we didn't have two mute kids! The only thing P would do is smile. Oh well, maybe next year.
Presley has already been in trouble and had her Halloween candy taken away...and she doesn't even care. She has never even asked about it since that night, isn't that sad? Are we mean parents? She only got one piece of her bucket of candy and then we took it away and hid it from her (as punishment for something), so now after she goes to bed I raid her bucket and eat it myself. I guess this is a win for me!
