Happy Halloween!

Well, we've gotten some good mileage out of our pirate costumes.  And that's good, because the girls have both been under the weather, so I'm not sure if we'll really be doing much in the way of Halloween festivities. 

 This past weekend, there was a little "trunk or treat" event at the church at the end of our street.  I decided to try to take some pictures of the three pirates before we went.

 Brooks wasn't really feeling it.

 Though pirates aren't know for their cheer, right?  You can see that I appliqued Brooks's shirt to make him even more pirate-y.  I'm not a big fan of skulls, so, as Mike said, I tried to make it look like a skull and crossbones without it being a skull and crossbones. 

 I actually like the swords more than bones.  And Little Man also got a fleece pirate hat.

 Here's the trunk or treat.  The girls, believe it or not, are really into getting free candy.  Go figure!

 It was actually a little weird, I thought.  Okay, so I thought it was bizarre.  Lots of ghosts and witches and stuff like that... at a church.  I though it would be more harvest/Fall-themed.  I realize that I tend to the conservative side, but still...  our park district event was less ghoulish.

 Happy Halloween!  Hope you get a good stash of goodies! ;)
