Halloween Recap

Go Ducks! Andy & Ella found the white pumpkin and thought it looked like a football....thus an idea was born!  Andy actually taped off the pumpkin and painted it brown.  I think it turned out so cool!  Then we had to give a shout out to our favorite football team who also happens to be #1!!! WhoHoo!  

Our "White Rabbit" from Alice in Wonderland....complete with her ahem, handmade felt clock bag! (I know we're silly over-achievers, but what can I say, we're both first-borns! And Erin, the master felt fairy, I thought of you the whole time I was making it!)   We taught her to say, "I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date!"  But really all she wanted to say that night was "twick er tweat!" and "CANDY!!!!!" followed quickly by, "Open, peas! Open, peas!"  Which sounds cute and all until the screaming began after we would put it in the bag!  Still a little too young to understand the whole concept.  She & I went home early and let Andy & Ella (the die-hards) continue on without us. 

Alice & her favorite White Rabbit!

Ready to go!  She seriously sprinted from house to house at the beginning.  She was soooo excited as you can tell from the  picture! We were so glad that the rain and even the cold decided to take a little break for our trick or treating adventure. :)

Not to be out done by my creative husband, here's my "spooktacular" sign that I made and Ella's very cute pumpkin.  She helped Andy pick out the face and then trace it on the pumpkin so he could carve it.  Needless to say, it was a very fun weekend! :)
