Halloween 2012!

Our kids were actually awake this Halloween!  Crazy huh?  Hehe.  Check out our Halloween last year: http://www.mcewansplus2.blogspot.com/2011/10/halloween-fun.html & http://www.mcewansplus2.blogspot.com/2011/11/pumpkins-and-princesses.html

This year was still very low key for us as dad and mom are always exhausted from working on the house :-)  We decided to let the girls finger paint on their pumpkins, then dance around in their Minnie outfits.

Lu was a little hesitant to stick her hands in the finger paint and preferred using a paintbrush.  She really got into painting her pumpkin and even moved on to painting the stem when her canvas seemed full :-)

Emma loved putting her fingers in every single color and wanted to hold the colors which really meant she just kept dumping them on herself!  Good thing mom is a preparer...I had a waterproof blanket down, covered by a cheap plastic table cloth, then I bought $4 leggings and sweatshirts in black from Target (just in case the paint wasn't truly washable).  It all ended up really well--the pumpkins turned out adorable and the girls cleaned up very easily--can't ask for much more!

Quick Trip To Lombardis!

We have been so busy lately and it feels like October is going to pass us by before we know it!  We thought we better at least run into Lombardis to let the girls run around and play.  Here are some pictures from their adventures:

So many pumpkins!







I like this one!
This is definitely THE ONE
You're right Mom, this one is more sensible!
