Getting ready for Halloween

I can’t believe how quickly this month has gone by.  Before we know it, it will be Christmas!  This month has been busy with our usual fall activities. We started October with decorating the house for Halloween.

The kids enjoyed putting Halloween decals on their bedroom windows.  Later that evening we made Halloween sugar cookies.

Then we went to Apple Hill and to the pumpkin  patch.   

 

We bought Noelle her Halloween costume.

 

and lastly we carved pumpkins.

Thomas loved getting the seeds out of his pumpkin 

Noelle wasn’t as fond of the pumpkin carving. Until the seeds were out. 

And then in typical Noelle fashion, she licked the top of the pumpkin.Thomas was trying to show us what kind of scary face he wanted on his pumpkin.

                  

The finished products!!!!

I asked the kids if I could take a cute picture of them by the Halloween flag.  Thomas decided he needed to pose and of course Noelle does whatever her big brother does.
