Halloween Day

On Halloween day, I went to Mom2Mom, Violet's class had a party, we went to our friends Jen and Jason's Halloween party after school, we watched a Dodgers World Series game, and we trick-or-treated around our neighborhood.

Whew! No wonder we were tired the next few days!

Violet's craft in class was a make-your-own-mummy, with a black cutout of a person, and white yarn.

Violet also was happy to show off the Halloween gram she received from Cora. (I gave them both dollars to buy each other the pencil and eraser grams - and Violet gave one to her friend Camryn, too.)

Violet's class also had a snack, and played Halloween bingo.

Then, it was time to get home and get costumed.

Here's my dragon and my newspaper girl playing the mummy game in Jen and Jason's front yard.

We headed home as it got dark and met up with our neighborhood friends for trick or treating. Cora was done early, as her face was itching from playing around in the grass at Trent's house, so I was able to watch most of the Dodgers game.

 Violet the Dragon, meanwhile, was a hard-core trick or treater with her Dad and the rest of the group. Here, she is showing off the pumpkins she and Cora carved on their own Sunday night.

 I made Violet get one photo with the mask she made, though she didn't like it once she had finished it. It was such a creative idea - she punched brads into a paper mask, and the put duck tape on the back to cover the sharp parts.

Here's Violet after her night out - what a haul! Thankfully, she's always willing to share!
