Halloween at Home

 The kids celebrated Halloween at school on Friday.  I was asked to sub for 2nd grade that day...  How many opportunities will I have to sub for Halloween???  So, I borrowed a costume and got in on the festivities....

Sunday night after meeting, we came home and carved pumpkins, gorged ourselves on a big assorted bag of candy (bought it "just in case we got any trick-or-treaters!" - a favorite line I have borrowed from my dad :), and roasted the seeds.    Mmmm.... good fun and a quiet evening!

We took the pictures after the mess was all cleaned up!  Well, I guess I did take a few during the process.  Must not make everything appear TOO perfect!  For you young mothers, though... it DOES get easier (and considerably more boring!)  The kids actually did a lot of their own clean-up, and no one got sick from the smell or ate any raw pumpkin seeds or innerds!!!
