Halloween 2010

Happy Halloween! Sophie had a great time this year with both the pumpkin carving (she designed her own skull pumpkin and loved the roasted pumpkin seeds Aunt Kristi made) and her second ever night of trick-or-treating (fortunately, the rain held off and it was a perfect night to be out!). In Sophie's words, "This was a great day!"

 Kristi shows Sophie how to get the guts out of a pumpkin

 Sophie drew her skull picture and Dean turned it into a jack-o-lantern (thanks to Ohdeedoh's pumpkin carving collaboration post for the inspiration!)

 Sophie has inherited her Dad's love of silly faces

 This year, Sophie was Piglet from Winnie the Pooh (it took her a long time to decide and various costumes like skeleton, ghost, butterfly, ladybug, pink slug and bumblebee were also discussed)

 Trick or treat!

 Our trick-or-treater in action at the Smiths' house. Sophie was a trooper and loved going from house to house. She even complimented the adults, "You guys are excellent at waiting for me at every house!"

Sorting her loot before bed. She neatly took each piece out of the bag one by one and lined them up in rows. When they were all laid out, she counted them carefully and got up to twenty-nine all by herself!
