Halloween Extravaganza

 The Halloween season kept rolling right along.  The night before the big event, we had our annual pumpkin carving.

 Sara, ready for her first jack-o-lantern.

 Got the top off!

 Scraping the "guts" out...

 Coming right along...

 Who's the cutest little punkin head in the picture?  (No, it's not Paul!)

 Ta-da!  The finished product, designed exclusively by Anna.  (Personally, I would have liked our jack-o-lantern to have some teeth.)

 Here's a photo just to document that I was, in fact, present.  Tired, quite clearly, but present.

 You can tell how much Sara enjoyed the experience.

 The next day, it was on to the girls' school for the traditional Halloween party and parade.  We started in Anna's class (as Sara's class isn't really doing much partying yet.)




 Next, it was on to the parade.  Here's Anna and her class waiting to see Sara's class kick it off!

 And here they come!  Does it really get any cuter than this?

 I don't think poor little Sara could see a thing, but she seemed happy enough!

 And here comes 3K!



 Here are the 3 and 4 year olds performing their special Halloween songs after the parade.  As you can see, true to form, Anna has her finger in her mouth and is just standing there looking around.  Didn't sing a note!  When asked why, she simply stated that she didn't want to.  Okay.  I give up.

 Later that night, it was on to Grandaddy's apartment to see the cousins in their costumes.

 What an adorable bunch!

 James, the doggy...

 Luke and Charlie, the astronauts...

 And my butterfly and giraffe (complete with pink bow so that people would know she's a girl!  There's been a lot of confusion with that lately among the general public.  Boo!)

 Later that night, we capped it off with some trick-or-treating.

Happy Halloween!
