I love halloween!
Lets face it, I love an excuse to dress my kids (and me) up!
So here's my kids, Jack as a skeleton and Tom as a bat, just before setting off for a party at Stefs (Adam & Conner's dad). I wasn't sure if grown-ups were dressing up or not, so I opted for a black outfit with hat and cape figuring I could lose the accessories if I was the only one. I wasn't though! Yay!!!
We had a nice time at the party. Jack got on well with the other kids (made good friends with a little devil) and Tom was ok so long as I holding him (mummys boy, ahhhh) I have a few snaps on flickr of the other kids in their costumes too. We missed the trick-or-treating though coz Mark wanted us home for tea (he was doing the roast) but to be fair I think Jack might still be a bit young and as Tom is already growing out of his 6-9 month bat-suit I'd have worried about him getting cold where the legs gapped. Next year I'll make sure they get to go!
Jack LOVES our pumpkin! I must make sure I do a better one next year, or maybe get 2 or 3 (1 big, 2 small) and experiment a bit with them! Get Jack to help as he'll be older then too. He keeps turning the light out and running up to it saying "Wow! Pimpim!" which is his word for pumpkin :oD tried to get a video of it.... but failed :0(
