Halloween 2011

Happy Halloween from our Pirate and her Parrot!

Over a month ago Lindy saw a show about pirates on Backyardigans.  Ever since then she has talked about being a pirate.  Will on the other hand, would not be a pirate.  Randomly, he decided he would be a parrot!  They don’t really get that it’s kind of funny that he is her parrot. 

The kids didn’t have school on Halloween day so we had a relaxing day at home.  After naptime we started getting ready.  Uncle Ed and Aunt Jamie came over to see the kids as well.  We went to 3 neighbors’ houses, and only one was home.  Then we went to our church for the trunk-or-treat and games. 

The kids had a blast getting candy and playing all the games.  They really got Halloween this year and it’s been fun.  As Will has said today, “I’m so sad that Halloween is over” or “How do we get to Halloween again?”
