3rd Annunal Pumpkin Party

The Saturday before Halloween, we had a pumpkin carving party at our house with my family.   All the kids put on their costumes and danced around like princesses.  They frosted cookies and we carved pumpkins outside and ate some beef stew.

Trunk or Treating

We had so many activities for Halloween this year now that Aaliyah is in school.  It started out with Trunk or Treating at church the Friday before Halloween.  Aaliyah put on her pirate fairy costume and trick-or-treated in the parking lot.  People decorated their trunks and handed out candy.  Some of the themes were Games, Pumpkins, Frozen and Construction site.  Then we went inside where they had a ton of activities.  She decorated her own little pumpkin, painted a ghost to hang in the window, made a bookmark, costume contest, face painting, decorated a pumpkin cookie and played games to win tickets for prizes. 

Frozen car with her friend Abby from school.  Aaliyah was being her stubborn self and wouldn't get in the picture.

Her pumpkin ended up being black and purple.

All in a circle for the costume contest.

Taking a break for a treat.

She picked a purple heart

The first time she got her face painted, she wiped it off, not this time...she loved it!
