Halloween 2011

Emma got out the snowman knife and wanted to start carving!  She was excited.

She was all about scooping out the pumpkin.  She did a great job and there wasn't too much complaining.  She even drew the face on her pumpkin.  

All the goo!

What a mess!  I was going to roast all the seeds until I looked at how much work it was going to be to separate the seeds and then I said just throw it all away.  Very easy clean up!

Our pumpkins!

All lit up and ready to go.

Snow White, ready to hand out candy!

Our neighbors invited us to go trick or treating with them.  Since the neighborhood is so big they pull a flat trailer so the kids don't get too pooped (or the parents!).  It was fun!

Snow White after the second stop.  At the next stop she came running up to me crying hysterically, she had to go potty!  Great!  We happened to be stopped next to an empty lot that was a perfect spot to take a squat :)

After trick or treating we went back to the neighbor's house and they had a piƱata.  Emma got to go first since she was the youngest.  She doesn't look like it, but at this point she was exhausted!  She was staring off into space most of the time.  It was pretty funny.

Daddy giving Snow White some tips

Here she goes!

All the girls lined up
