A few days ago I posted this picture of the kids working on their pumpkins.
Here are the final results. August carved his own pumpkin – completely.
I wound up carving out the others, as you would expect. Thankfully the kids helped with the scooping out and cleanup (and general direction of what they wanted the final product to look like. The theme this year was “monsters” – notice August’s has three eyes. Each one has a different number of eyes.
Dela went to sleepover at a friends, but yes, they would be going out to trick-or-treat. It took a bit of doing, but before she left we got her hair looking appropriate for her costume.
August had a friend over, both of whom were incarnations of the Doctor.
Ciaran and Xavier were Luke Skywalker and Captain America.
That left Tevye to be the tried and true bumblebee, a costume pretty much each of the kids have used since August was this age.
Unfortunately no pictures of the kids out and about trick-or-treating.
