Halloween 2010

Ok, so I'm a little late in getting these out.  But at least I got some pictures taken this year.  We had a lot of fun with Justin's parents coming for dinner and walking the blocks with us.  Our ward also did a halloween haunted house and trunk-or-treat, which I know the boys enjoyed.  They just wished there was more fun stuff to do.  Maybe next year.  Justin's parents also helped us carve and paint pumpkins.  What a fun day. 

Zayne was not a big fan of putting the paint on his hands to paint with.  But eventually he started getting the hang of it.  In fact he quickly realized that paint was not very tasty or fun to eat. 

Cyrus really got into the sponge stamping part of painting his pumpkin.  He did a really good job.

Zayne tried to wipe off his pumpkin and clean it with a paper towel.

Cyrus pre-drew his face on his pumpkin before he and his dad carved it.  He did not want to clean the pumpkin out.

Quentin and his Grandpa Hemingway carved this pumpkin together.  They had a lot of fun.  Quentin would not clean out the pumpkin as well.  All of these pumpkins came from our garden.  The boys did a great job in planting them.

Quentin was Aang from the last airbender cartoon shows.  I could not find a costume any where and had to make this one myself.  It took a lot of creativity and re-cutting and sewing after many times of trying it on to see how it looked.  No we did not shave Quentin's head.  It is a bald cap with the arrow painted on. He was very proud to wear this.

Cyrus really wanted to be Darth Vadar as you can see.  He was so happy to wear this costume and had to tell everyone who he was. 

Zayne was a puppy.  The costume was quite big, but it still turned out cute.  Zayne's favorite thing to do is chase after his brothers being a dog.  He has the panting down well and occasionally you'll get him to bark. 

WE had a fun Halloween and have started some little traditions this year that I think we will try and continue on every year.  What a great weekend, even with the rain.  It stopped just as we headed out the door and we were able to stay dry.
