Pumpkins and Princesses

The girls have officially celebrated their first Halloween! We kicked off the festivities on the Saturday before Halloween, going to our cousins' for a Halloween party. The girls wore their costumes (Rapunzels from Tangled) and we went as a cowgirl and cowboy. The girls put up with their costumes for quite a while but 4 days later we are still finding glitter all over them! Now, I love my girls equally but I have to say Olivia was really into her dress, fluffing it out, picking it up, putting it back down again, she just cracks me up:

Early on Halloween we got the pumpkins ready to carve. We thought it would be funny to pick out the pumpkins based on the girls and this is what we ended up with :-)

Dad came up with the idea to do an "Angry Birds" theme so here they are!

We passed out candy for a while then took the girls to walk through the neighborhood. We put them in their Halloween jammies and walked around visiting with neighbors and checking out all the cool stuff going on around our house. This year there were several haunted houses with whole streets closed off to cars so that the kids could run around. We can't wait for the girls to get bigger so they can join in.

Overall it was a really great time and we look forward to all the other occasions and events we will get to spend with our girls!
