Halloween 2008

Katelyn and I made pumpkin shaped sugar cookies. She helped frost a few cookies.
Here is the finished product. Yum!
Adam carved a pumpkin with the kids. Katelyn wanted a pumpkin with googly eyes.
The pumpkin has googley eyes a carrot nose and a tongue. It is a silly pumpkin.
Katelyn was a cheerleader for Halloween. She ran around saying "Go Team!" She quickly figured out the fine art of Trick or Treating. We went Trick or Treating with her cousins. Since there were several children, she would say "Trick or Treat," get some candy, step back for everyone else to get candy and then go back to get more candy. Once I caught on to what she was doing, I stopped her from doing it. So being the creative little thing she is, she had to come up with new tactics. She then turned on the charm and smile at the bowl of candy presented to her at each door and point to all candy she liked and said, "Oh that one is my favorite." It worked and she always ended up with more than one piece of candy from each house.
Ryan was a football player for Halloween. We put Adam's rolled up socks on his shoulders for shoulder pads. He is the cutest football player.
Here he is after we painted black lines on his face.
Cheerleader and Football player.
Adam dressed up too. He was very creepy looking. I didn't like the way he looked. Katelyn and Ryan just laughed at him.
I am kissing my monster.
Here is our little monster. Katelyn wanted to try on the mask.
We bobbed for apples. Katelyn actually got one and then ate almost the entire apple.
Adam bobbed for apples too. He had to show everyone how it was done. Notice his face is all wet and dripping.

Jennifer, I've enjoyed taking a peek at you and your family on your blog. Your silly pumpkin is great. I'm also impressed at Katelyn's technique for getting more candy, and impressed that you bobbed for apples. I don't think I ever have.

Adam, Jennifer, Katelyn, and Ryan

Enjoy life!
