Thanksgiving Indian

Lauren's kindergarten class celebrated Thanksgiving and everyone dressed up as Pilgrims and Indians. With not a pilgrim costume to be found (and certainly not sewed) Lauren automatically became an Indian.


She apparently needed lots of accessories and feathers too.




They feasted on turkey and dressing and all the trimmings at school, including 'raspberry sauce'. Apparently she'd never heard of cranberry sauce. Too funny. Of course their favorite part -- the spice cake.

Happy Thanksgiving One and All,
Heather

Lauren Models

Here's Lauren with a new fall outfit.



Headed out to Sunday School.

With a quick pose added in for good measure.



And....here's what Spencer thinks about having his picture made before church.


It's a rough life. He's one silly boy.

Love,

Heather

Our Spook-tacular Night

We had an awesome time trick or treating our neigborhood last night. We have a barrel of candy to prove it.

Lauren was a witch.
Complete with a black wart.


Spencer was Anakin Skywalker from the cartoon series.


Hello Anakin.



Stuart was Leatherface and built a spooky scene in the garage. He made our visitors 'work' for their candy. The screams could be heard throughout the neighborhood. And that was just the guys.

Lauren ready to get the show on the road.

But not before a diva pose. Can witches be divas?

Anakin in the spooky garage.
Take that Hutch-back. Costumes varied through the evening.


Stuart and his friend.

A good look for him, don't ya think?

The cool night kept us moving fast and even stopping back by the house to unload candy and warm up downstairs. We had lots of activity on our street and with the grave yard scene in the front yard with spooky music, skeletons and a fog machine our house was pretty popular. By 9pm we had to close it up to keep the teenagers away. We were all cold, tired and ready for that extra hour of sleep. Until next year......hope your Halloween was spectacular.
