Halloween Fun

We had a fun night trick-or-treating!  It was a great night, a bit chilly but at least the rain cleared out.

The kids had fun with their costumes too.
The boy was a shark and the girl was a surfer carrying around the surfboard that I made for the boys room.






We hope you had a fun and safe night as well.

I welcome November in with open arms, it is my favorite month and not because it is my bday month, but because I love me some Thanksgiving food!!! :)

I will be back later to show you what I finished in the bonus room so far.

Enjoy your week and don't eat too much candy........well, at least in one sitting. :)

    Oh goodness, what a cute idea, Michelle! They look like they're having so much fun. I thought it would've been soooo funny if my son was santa and my daughter an elf. My son didn't go for that idea at all. He was a mummy instead :)

    So cute and creative Michelle! That pick of your son taking a "bite" out of the surfboard is perfect. :-) My daughter was a ladybug and my son was a meteorologist tonight. Gotta love sweet and creative costumes huh? Now I'm off to raid their candy buckets! LOL!

Oh, and that picture of your son "biting" the surfboard while your daughter rode it is hilarious! Love it! :)

    Perfect Emerald Cove
    trick or treaters!!! They
    are both darling, Michelle.
    Hard to believe when you
    look at them together that
    in ten years he will most
    likely be bigger than she is!
    At least, that's what has
    happened at our house.
    Our 13 year old son is now
    four inches taller than his
    16 year old sister. Only
    he went trick or treating,
    this year, but I'm sure a few
    folks wondered how old
    this tall kid is!
