Thought I'd make a thread for posting kids in costumes, posters in costumes, jack-o-lanterns that posters carved, decorated houses, etc...

That little peacock is so cute and so's the "ferocious" lion.

Great costumes, Julie! We go crazy with our pumpkins every year. In years past, we've each done upwards of four jack-o-lanterns. We toned it down a bit this year and only did two each.
The two on the left are my two neighbors' pumpkins who we carved with. The huge grinning face is Donners' pumpkin, the skull is mine.
These are the 2nd pumpkins that Donners and I carved. Mine is the Grim Reaper yelling BOO, and the flaming face is Don's. He freehand drew that face... mine's a stencil.

Yeah I tried to do something from the norm of "regular" pumpkin. I had never done one, so I did something easy...a bat. Yeah, never again. You have to have so much patience and I just don't have it. I love seeing pumpkins like that and maybe a few years down the road I will have more patience, but not now.

I like the scarecrow Gracie! Did Kit have fun at his party? We took the kids to little adopted sis' neighborhood. I didn't get the best pics of my kids (most were group shots and I won't post those.) Here's Caleb:
And Dakota, though let me set this up first, lol. We'd been through the entire neighborhood (which was much larger than I thought) and had gone down one street and were coming up little adopted sis' street from the opposite way. We were maybe 2 blocks down from her house and all the kids were dragging and tired and ready to just stop. Dakota had been doing the potty dance and finally told us she had to pee, she was done, she was sitting on the curb until we took her back to the house. We all said ok, the other kids weren't too thrilled about stopping at another house anyways so we when they came back we'd go straight back and not stop anywhere else. She was sitting on the curb, and yes, she really is sitting there, lol, and I snapped this pic. It's not centered and there are a couple things missing from it.

Like her face? LOL Hope she made it home in time. I love it when the kids have so much fun they get all pooped out.
Kit enjoyed his party very much, especially dancing with the girls, but he gave me a solemn shake of his head when I asked him if he had won the costume contest this year. He has won it several times before, and I told him he couldn't win it all the time! LOL He was tired out and went to bed a whole hour earlier than usual, too. Yeah Ducky, maybe next year we should plan to go to the trunk or treat here in order to see all the kids. I may have to take out a loan for the candy needed in such an endeavor, though.

We drove past the pumpkin patch several times this year, wishing the grandkids were here.

LOL, yay there is her head and arm! And yep, we made it back in time. They really were exhausted by the time we were done. It's so odd, every year halloween night is freezing, windy, and sometimes even raining and the kids want to go and go and go. Tonight was beautiful, I didn't even bother putting my sweatshirt on and I'm normally freezing, but all the kids were ready to be done pretty early. That contest was rigged! He looks great in his costume. I am glad he had fun. Ack, we missed the Haunted House this year! For years we've gone to a friends house to trick or treat, but last year and this year we didn't. One of his neighbors has a great haunted house we've always enjoyed.

Sorry, I didn't get a pix, but an adult-sized (HUGE) Hagrid came with his kids. He was spot-on.

Cute costumes! I feel the urge to show off the girls.
Maddy is the artist and Torrey is her paintbrush. It took me a week to figure out how to do her hair. A couple of people thought she was a Chia Pet. LOL

That would be my guess. What is she? Oh, 'The Paintbrush'. Clever!

I just put a picture of my kids in my folder. They had fun last night, but we had had such a long day with school parties and having to stay after school to decorate for stuff there that about 20 minutes into trick or treating, Jenna asked if we could go home. Nope, not time yet! She made it, but she was exhausted. Love all your costumes, the artist and paint brush is so cute! (I thought chia pet too!) Very original.

Too funny, Sewmommy! I especially like Maddy giggling in the background! Great pics everyone. Here is my great niece Abby in her Tigger costume. She's just short of 14 months, so we thought she wouldn't really "get" Halloween. Omg she was so funny, no matter who she went up to, she held her hand out. We went to the grand opening of our super Walmart, and she was holding her hand out all over in there, too. People would say, "oh, how cute!" and she'd hold that little hand out. We've created a mini greed monster!! I'm a dork and didn't notice that the date on the camera needed to be fixed. It wasn't really 7/7/07...

Love the paintbrush! What a clever idea the girls had to go as a team, too. Huk, now you will have to tame the Tigger. Maddy is so cute! Have to run over and see Jewel's little jewels. <dashes away>

My little guy was originally a pirate but absolutely refused (tantrum,hysterics,screaming..the whole 9 yards) to wear the costume...So we went with a dragon instead. He loved it
