A busy Halloween

Now that I finally got the costumes washed and put away, I can post Halloween pictures. Our Halloween began on Saturday, Oct. 25 with pumpkin carving and painting. Amber did not want to reach in her pumpkin to get out the seeds, but she did enjoy the painting part. The pumpkins came out really cute, but I forgot to take pictures, I was too busy roasting (and eating) the seeds. Saturday evening, Chris and I chaperoned for the youth dance. It was a costume dance, and it just so happened that two of the young women were dressed up as Peter Pan and Tinkerbell, so we fit right in as Captian Hook and Wendy.
Here's an action picture of the Peter Pan clan. Sunday after church, Chris flew to Illinois for work, not to be back until Friday. We kept ourselves so busy we barely noticed he was gone until Wednesday when we all dressed up for trunk or treat at the church and didn't have our Captian Hook. It was a pretty hectic evening, so I didn't get any pictures.
Friday, Chris came home and we all dressed up and went to a Halloween party at our friends house and trick or treating in their neighborhood (our neighborhood consists of about 10 houses).
Chris is Captian Hook, I'm Wendy, Jared is Peter Pan, Clarissa is one of the mermaids, Krystal is Tinkerbell, and Amber is Tigerlily. We had a lot of fun making costumes, getting dressed up and got loads of candy!
Last, but not least. Jared played his first game of guitar hero. Our friend was so excited that she finally won a game of guitar hero, she said she'd play against Jared any time.
