Sam and Abby's little pumpkins...

These are cute little pumpkins that we picked up today and painted.  Tomorrow we will carve our big pumpkins, bake our cookies and make our Rice Krispy Haunted house kits :)  

Tomorrow night we are off to a fancy dress Halloween party - all dressed in Medieval theme :) 
A King Arthurs court theme and held by some homeschool friends of ours :)   
Fun fun fun :)

Sunday is the Pumpkin Festival with friends, and Monday is Trick or treating :) 

I love Halloween - I feel soooo lucky to be able to share in these moments with my children and create these memories with them.  I know they will look back on them with joy and will treasure the memories and hopefully recreate them with their children.  

People complain that too much is made of holidays and occasions these days, but I don't care - children are only young for such a short time, and I truly want to make the most of it!!!  

Tonight Susannah went to her school Halloween dance....I drove her and her friend Jacob there, and Jacobs Mom brought her home.  Her friend Maddie is staying over until Sunday :)  

I took Abby and Sam to DQ for pumpkin pie blizzards and then we curled up in bed together and watched Monster House - we wanted to see Ghostbusters but couldn't find it anywhere so will have to try again tomorrow!!
