Halloween, and 'darn it....'

Paige knew she wanted to be a pumpkin as soon as she saw this costume, but Cam was a little more difficult. He really wanted to be a ninja, but I'm not into fighting and swords and stuff, so I said no. I had said okay to a skeleton and then we found the best feather boa I have ever seen in my life and Cam said he wanted to use it to make a Mikey the Bird costume. I haven't finished it yet, but here is a good idea of what it will look like. Mom is going to make his hood with a beak and proper Mikey parrot colors.

Here is Paigie in her pumpkin. It's very cute! Notice Genevieve in the background, full of class. :)


The other day, Paige had a stuffed shark and was running around the house singing the Jaws theme song, but saying "Darn it... Darn it... Darn it" She insists that sharks say "Darn it".

Yesterday, their grandma came and picked them up and kept them until dinner time. I didn't know what to do with myself when I first came home! They went to two cemeteries to take pictures of a couple of headstones she needed pictures of and then they went to the movie store and had lunch with great grandma and played and played and then they came home. They sure slept well last night!
