Happy 2011 Halloween!

Scott carved these pumpkins for the girls. I took the guts out and roasted the seeds. Carissa's is the kitty and Maia's is the haunted house.


My Mom bought them these kitty dresses to wear in October.

Maia as Dorothy.

Carissa as Minnie Mouse. I wore a matching Minnie headband.
Carissa loves to match with me.
Charley had to dress up too! One house even gave him a doggie treat!

Some friends we went trick-or-treating with for part of the night.

This is Dr. Gillespie's house in Fairfield (4375 Green Valley Road). He has this big event every year. You go to his house before Halloween to carve a pumpkin that he provides. Then on Halloween he light's all the pumpkins (over a 400!). They were all so fancy too. He also opens his home (which is beautiful) to everyone and serves a whole spread of endless food (pizza, shrimp cocktail, meatballs, roasted chicken, cream puffs). He also passes out whole sized candy bars to kids and parents. This was our first time here. We will be there next year for sure!
Carissa's treasure on the left and Maia's treasure on the right. I would say they did pretty good this year.
